What to watch: 1/8/09

Minnesota at Iowa (7 p.m./ESPN2)

If Minnesota is a legit threat to the Big Ten crown, then this is one they win.

Drexel at VCU (7 p.m./ESPNU)

The Rams have been a bit of a disappointment, but Eric Maynor (23.1 ppg/5.8 apg) has not.

Utah State at Louisiana Tech (8 p.m./MASN/ESPN FullCourt/ESPN Plus)

Hey, we have your old football coach. The Aggies are solid, but why is this game on so many channels?

IPFW at Oral Roberts (8 p.m./FCS Central/ESPN FullCourt)

Two bad teams from one bad league.

Oregon at Arizona (8:30 p.m./FCS Pacific)

A battle of the two teams currently occupying the Pac-10 cellar.

Oregon State at Arizona State (10:30 p.m./FSN)

The smart money is probably on the team with James Harden.

Stanford at Washington (10:30 p.m./FCS Central)

Because you're awake and you always thought Lorenzo Romar was cute.

Cal State Fullerton at Cal-Poly (11 p.m./ESPNU)

This would be some solid pub for the Big West if it weren't a game featuring two of the three 0-2 squads in the league. The chance to see Josh Akognon makes this a better option than an old episode of Frazier if you're still up.
