FEAST WEEK
For college football, thanksgiving might mean rivalry week, but as far as basketball is concerned we call it Feast Week with tons of neutral site marquee non-conference matchups happening around the country. Grab yourself a plate or two for all these helpings of holiday hoops.

Women’s Basketball
Tuesday: Clemson vs. #23 Alabama, 1:30 P.M.; #14 Kentucky vs. Arizona State, 3:30 P.M.; #21 Oregon vs. South Dakota State, 6:00 P.M.

Unfortunately the majority of these women’s games are on bullshit streaming services you likely don’t have like FloCollege or something called BallerTV. From an LSU perspective that’s really disappointing because the Tigers will (finally) play someone with a pulse, NC State, Wednesday afternoon in the Bahamas. Thankfully South Carolina vs. Iowa State is on good ole regular network TV.
