As Christmas Day rapidly approaches, the multitude of high profile college basketball affairs will diminish rapidly. However, this is not to say that there is a dearth of competitive contests this week. In fact, relatively unknown programs that play in lesser conferences will get unique opportunities to garner some impressive non-conference wins before they fade back into obscurity until March Madness commences. With non-conference play wrapping up this week, reputable programs will valiantly attempt to bolster their resumes before they face familiar albeit highly-competitive opponents who will all be seeking to get a leg up in their respective conferences any way they can.
