St. John's-Kentucky, Houston-Arkansas, Duke-Texas Tech highlight AWESOME weekend of college hoops

On today’s show, we preview a big weekend in college basketball, starting with an early look at the CBS Sports Classic. We break down Kentucky-St. John’s and North Carolina-Ohio State, and discuss what the spotlight could mean for Jayden Quaintance IF he takes the floor in a showcase event he grew up watching ( ... or so GP says).

After the break, we dive into a Dribble Handoff focused on the SEC, debating who’s best positioned to win the league, whether Vanderbilt is a legitimate title contender, and which SEC teams—if any—have a real chance to make a run at the national championship.

We wrap things up with The Final Four And 1 presented by FanDuel Sportsbook, breaking down four of the weekend’s biggest games, including St. John’s vs. Kentucky, Ohio State vs. North Carolina, Houston vs. Arkansas, and Duke vs. Texas Tech. Plus, the And 1 spotlights a key Mountain West matchup as Colorado State visits Utah State on CBS Sports Network.
