Your Atlanta sports TV schedule. All times EST.
↵Basketball
↵Washington Wizards at Chicago Bulls, 8, WGN: Joakim Noah didn't like seeing LeBron James dancing on the court last year, meaning Colin Cowherd might have a new favorite player once Noah gets a load of John Wall.
↵Football
↵Miami Hurricanes at Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets, noon, WUPA and ESPN3: The Jackets are honoring the 20th anniversary of their 1990 national championship team before the game and at halftime, not that you care about that while reading a TV post. So uhhh tune in to not see Jacory Harris or Joshua Nesbitt, since neither are playing. Tech needs this win to keep its bowl streak alive.
↵Mississippi Rebels at Tennessee Volunteers, noon, CBS: Let's get it done, Vols. As a Kennesaw State grad, I feel inclined to root for Tennessee thanks to our own Vince Dooley's familial connection, but how can you not hope they get an SEC win this year? Have a heart.
↵No. 13 Iowa Hawkeyes at Northwestern Wildcats, noon, ESPN or ESPN3: Last year at the Orange Bowl a passing Hawkeye fan hollered something at a group of Tech fans about losing to Georgia. I yelled one word at him that sent him into several paragraphs of yeah-well and so-what and that sort of thing. The word was Northwestern. Northwestern is a team Hawkeyes fans condescend all over, but which gave last year's 9-0 Hawks their first loss of the season.
↵Indiana Hoosiers at Wisconsin Badgers, noon, ESPN2 or ESPN3
↵Vanderbilt Commodores at Kentucky Wildcats, 12:21, WPCH and ESPN3: Please don't make me write anything here.
↵No. 24 Kansas St. Wildcats at No. 17 Missouri Tigers, 12:30, Fox Sports South: Didn't get enough track meet football last Saturday? The Big 12 still exists, so lace 'em up.
↵Georgia Bulldogs at No. 2 Auburn Tigers, 3:30, CBS: ↵↵Cam Newton? Cam Newton. Cam Newton? Cam Newton. Cam Newton? Cam Newton. Cam Newton? Cam Newton. Cam Newton? Cam Newton. Cam Newton? Cam Newton. Cam Newton? Cam Newton. Cam Newton? Cam Newton. Cam Newton? GAME OF THE DAY!

↵No. 20 Virginia Tech Hokies at North Carolina Tar Heels, 3:30, ABC and ESPN3: The Hokies losing this game, which they need to all but clinch the ACC Coastal, is now such a certainty that there's no way they'll lose. We've got you figured out, ACC.
↵Penn St. Nittany Lions at No. 9 Ohio St. Buckeyes, 3:30, ESPN: Meh, but included because it's nice to remember Ohio St. is still out there. Does anyone else still feel like the Buckeyes haven't played football in over a month?
↵Texas Tech Red Raiders at Oklahoma Sooners, 3:30, ESPN3
↵No. 23 South Carolina Gamecocks at No. 22 Florida Gators, 7:15, ESPN and ESPN3: The SEC East Championship Game, and we refer you to Spencer Hall's take.
↵No. 19 Mississippi St. Bulldogs at No. 12 Alabama Crimson Tide, 7:15, ESPN2 and ESPN3: Nick Saban could've solved this whole Cam Newton mess months ago by simply grayshirting Cecil.
↵No. 1 Oregon Ducks at California Golden Bears, 7:30, Versus: Meh, but included because OOH WEE DUCKS POINTS FAST DUCKS POINTS POINTS PUSHUPS TONKA SPEED SMASH. You'd tune in to watch Oregon play absolutely anyone.
↵Clemson Tigers at Florida St. Seminoles, 8, ABC and ESPN3: In 45 of 218 possible ACC Atlantic scenarios, this game has absolutely no bearing on who wins the division. Simple math tells you it's thus probably pretty important, America.
↵No. 10 Oklahoma St. Cowboys at Texas Longhorns, 8, ESPN3
↵USC Trojans at No. 18 Arizona Wildcats, 8, ESPN3
↵Nevada Wolf Pack at Fresno St. Bulldogs, 10:30, ESPN3
