College students around the country are getting ready to plow through exams and head home for winter break. College football is in its pre-Bowl season lull. Good thing college hoops is here to save your weekend with a fascinating and festive slate of games. The highlight is the clash of bluebloods at the CBS Sports Classic in Las Vegas, but we will also be treated to an old-school used-to-be Big East battle between Georgetown and Syracuse, as well as a matchup of Wake Forest and Xavier played in honor of the late Skip Prosser.
