Picks: Big 12 Takes Center Stage with West Virginia-Texas Tech, TCU-Oklahoma Matchups

The Big 12 takes center stage over the next few days, with the weekend’s two marquee games taking place in the conference. You’re going to want to park yourself in front of multiple TVs on Saturday afternoon—all four of the weekend’s games featuring two ranked teams tip off between 1 p.m. and 3 p.m. ET.

Marquette at Butler

Friday, 6:30 p.m. ET, FS1

Friday’s lone noteworthy game pits a couple of Big East teams that could really use a win against one another. Butler has dropped three straight since beating Villanova, and while there’s no shame in losing to Xavier, Seton Hall and Creighton, no team in history has ever lost its way into the NCAA tournament.
