Saint Joseph's at BUCKNELL 7 p.m.: Bucknell's emergence as a mid major power began with a win at Saint Joseph's last season. The Hawks come in at 4-2, with a win over Kansas among the wins. The others were less impressive, coming against Lafayette, Fairfield and Drexel. Saint Joe's losses have come at Davidson in overtime, and at home to Ohio State. A win would give Bucknell an 8-1 start for the first time since 1956-57. To get that win, Bucknell will have to stop the Hawks' three-point shooters, especially leading scorer Chet Stachitas, a 6-5 swingman who is hitting 63 percent of his shots from the arc. Overall, the Hawks shoot 43 percent from 3-point range.

HOLY CROSS vs. Mississippi St. 2 p.m.: The Bulldogs saw a five-game win streak end in the semis with a loss to Akron. Although MSU is 8-3 on the season, that record could be deceptive. Seven of those games were played in Starkville.
