Each weekday, our college hoops experts discuss the biggest issues, trends and themes in college basketball.
1. Which team has an opportunity for one last marquee nonconference win before conference play arrives?
Andy Katz: Northern Iowa. If the Panthers get a shot at Oklahoma in the Diamond Head Classic, it could do wonders for their overall résumé.
C.L. Brown: Florida State. Or Florida. The rivals are in similar positions schedule-wise, with neither having secured a win over a top-50 team. Next week's winner will no longer fit in that category.
