Keep an eye on these games in the upcoming week:

        • Xavier at Dayton, noon today (Fox Sports Net): XU hasn't won in UD Arena since Pete Gillen was coaching. It's Thad Matta's chance to make a statement.

        • Gonzaga at New Mexico, 11:59 p.m. Monday (ESPN): Which three teams made the Sweet 16 the past three seasons? Duke, Michigan State and -- surprise! -- Gonzaga. Check out Zags star guard Dan Dickau in action.

        • Michigan State at Indiana, 7 p.m. Tuesday (ESPN): The Spartans' 53-game home winning streak is the nation's longest. But MSU is 0-4 this season away from home, and it lost its No. 1 ranking last year in Assembly Hall.

        • Charlotte at Cincinnati, 8 p.m. Tuesday (Ch. 19): This remains Conference USA's best rivalry, at least until Rick Pitino comes to town. Too bad Diego Guevara isn't still around to be booed.

        • North Carolina at Maryland, 7:30 p.m. Wednesday (ESPN2): Like many ACC teams, Maryland should hand the Tar Heels quite a payback for years of abuse.
