College basketball has the NCAA universe all to itself now that the College Football Playoff National Championship has come and gone, and Saturday’s schedule brings a solid slate of action on the hardwood. The early afternoon window will be particularly loaded as No. 18 Kentucky hosts No. 22 Tennessee and No. 15 Iowa State hosts No. 21 Texas in a pair of critical early-season conference battles. 

It will be past midnight ET when the last ranked team is done as No. 3 UCLA and No. 5 USC start league contests at 10:30 and 11 p.m. ET, respectively. In between, there will be plenty of action, including a bounce-back opportunity for No. 1 Baylor as the Bears look to recover from their first loss by hosting Oklahoma State at 5 p.m.

Another of the day’s appealing Big 12 contests pits No. 9 Kansas against West Virginia in a battle of teams with identical 13-2 (2-1 Big 12) records. That one will be broadcast live on CBS and is among the big games that our experts have picked below.

Here is the full breakdown of the day’s biggest tilts from the CBS Sports squad.

Odds via Caesars Sportsbook | All times Eastern

West Virginia at No. 9 Kansas 

Featured Game | Kansas Jayhawks vs. West Virginia Mountaineers

Powered by Caesars Sportsbook

2 p.m. | CBS, CBSSports.com, CBS Sports App (Free) — Kansas struggled a week ago against Texas Tech’s tenacious defense and now faces a similar challenge going up against a great West Virginia defense. With point guard Remy Martin still day-to-day because of a knee injury, the Jayhawks may have trouble getting into an offensive rhythm. This is by far WVU’s toughest test so far this season, so it would be a surprise if the Mountaineers go on the road and win outright. But if Taz Sherman can keep pace with Ochai Agbaji, they should keep the game close and have a chance at the end. Prediction: Kansas 68, West Virginia 65 

NC State at No. 8 Duke

Featured Game | Duke Blue Devils vs. NC State Wolfpack

Powered by Caesars Sportsbook

2 p.m. | ABC,  fuboTV (Try for free) — After dropping five straight, including losses against Richmond and Wright State, NC State has now won two of its last three after crushing Louisville 79-63 on the road Wednesday. The Wolfpack are a guard-oriented squad capable of scoring in bunches, which makes them similar to the Miami team that upset Duke last Saturday. If the Blue Devils haven’t shored some things up defensively, they could end up in another battle. Prediction: Duke 78, NC State 70 

No. 21 Texas at No. 15 Iowa State

Featured Game | Iowa State Cyclones vs. Texas Longhorns

Powered by Caesars Sportsbook

2 p.m. | ESPN+ — The Cyclones are off to a 1-3 start in the Big 12 but gave No. 1 Baylor and No. 9 Kansas all they could handle. Now comes another huge test as Texas comes to town looking to build off a defensively dominant 66-52 win over Oklahoma on Tuesday. Both teams allow fewer than 60 points on average, and Texas gives up just 53 per game, which is first nationally. Hilton Coliseum should be enough to give ISU a slight edge in a low-scoring brawl. Prediction: Iowa State 60, Texas 59 

Oklahoma State at No. 1 Baylor

Featured Game | Baylor Bears vs. Oklahoma State Cowboys

Powered by Caesars Sportsbook

5 p.m. | ESPN,  fuboTV (Try for free) — Baylor should be amply motivated after suffering its first loss of the season at home against Texas Tech on Tuesday. The Cowboys pose a similar type of challenge as a gritty, defense-oriented squad. OSU actually forces more turnovers and blocks more shots than Texas Tech. But offense has been a struggle for the Cowboys, and their guards aren’t quite as physical as Texas Tech’s. Baylor should be able to stifle Oklahoma State and get back in the win column without too much drama. Prediction: Baylor: 77, Oklahoma State 68 

No. 4 Auburn at Ole Miss

Featured Game | Ole Miss Rebels vs. Auburn Tigers

Powered by Caesars Sportsbook

8:30 p.m. | SEC Network,  fuboTV (Try for free) — With No. 1 Baylor suffering its first loss this week, Auburn could have a case to be the nation’s new top-ranked team if it can take care of business here. The Tigers are already No. 1 in Gary Parrish’s Top 25 And 1 and have been wildly impressive during a 12-game winning streak. In theory, they should crush an Ole Miss team that just lost by 16 at Texas A&M. But the Rebels soundly beat a decent Mississippi State team at home just a week ago and should keep this one closer than many expect. Prediction: Auburn 75, Ole Miss 70
