Mike Miller

Mike Miller has been NBCSports.com's college basketball editor since 2003. It's a position he relishes; no wonder considering he transferred to Kansas to watch Paul Pierce play. Most of his favorite sports memories involve college hoops, usually during March, when every waking moment is spent thinking about March Madness.



Need more cowbell for hoops schedules?

Self-promotion/programming alert!

The plan to roll out a new preview for the 2009-10 season began Sunday with the Top 10 conferences. Coming this week: Games you can’t miss.

I know, I know, you can hardly wait. Perhaps these links will help tide you over.

The Big Monday slate for ESPN was announced last week, and it’s no slouch. Villanova at Louisville. Kansas at Texas. West Virginia at UConn. Love it. Rush the Court points to Feb. 8 as the best day (‘Nova at West Virginia, followed by KU at Texas), and they may not be wrong. Regardless, it gives you a reason to finally like Monday. (Me, I work Sunday through Thursday so that’s actually my Tuesday, but I digress.)

Most of the holiday tournament kerfuffle was covered last month, but in case you were on vacation, here are some pertinent links. A breakdown of the six biggies and some bemoaning. (And here’s the definition of kerfuffle.)

Links for conference schedules follow: ACC; A-10; Big East; Big 12; Big Ten; C-USA; MWC; Pac-10; SEC, among others.

But the best link is probably this breakdown from Luke Winn. He details the five toughest non-conferences schedules (actually the Top 10), two of the weakest and some other intriguing matchups. Good stuff.
