If it's on CBS at 1 p.m. I believe the answer would be a big yes

Just because it's on CBS doesn't mean it'll be nationally televised though. The UT game wasn't.

EDIT- I just checked espn.com and it's the only listed game on CBS. Yee-haw!

This will be our biggest test this year, Should be one hell of a game.

Someone will need to lock down EG, which is much easier said than done.

Also, bench production will be crucial.

And KK needs to play big against DJ White and Co. We need a strong post game to battle the Hoosiers with.

This should be a good one.

The Schott was embarassing on Tuesday. We were playing on national TV and it was about 1/3 empty at tip-off. Hope the crowd shows up and is rowdy for this game, we are going to need every bit of the homecourt advantage we can get. If we can pull off the white out again like we did against Mich. State, that would be pretty freaking awesome.

The game was an early game...7 oclock start and it was pouring rain, lots of traffic backup...Traffic didn't get busy till about 25 minutes till tip...

The last 10 minutes the crowd was into it...

I think the crowd will be in it from the get go Sunday...

Very interesting that the power rankings have us winning 66-64...Lets hope they are right on like they have been for a lot of the game...

I was shocked to see photos of empty seats after the game because it sounded very loud on tv. But please, no whiteout. It's stupid. Wear scarlet or gray and cheer loud.

Maybe its just me, but I think it looks pretty good in that game.

[OSUBasketballJunkie]

Winning this game would look very good come tourney time......we need this one bad.....

the white out idea is awesome. Hope it works out. Our bigmen need to box out White or he will destroy us on the boards. We are going to need our shooters to step up to take away their rebounding advantage.
