A few thoughts here going into the day:

• Who did Texas A&M piss off to get that kind of draw? The Aggies play the #3 and the #1 teams in the land, back to back, in the Mary Nutter Classic. This after playing #5 Arizona (who they beat) on Thursday. WTH man!
• Partaking in the Georgia Classic, an event they’re hosting, UGA will play Central Michigan first and then 21st-ranked James Madison. This will be the first of two times that they’re set to face CMU and JMU, as they’re playing again on Saturday afternoon
• In the Blazer Classic down in Birmingham, Ole Miss is set to face 14th-ranked Oklahoma State in their first game. They, of course, will be playing UAB, but the premier game is against the ranked Pokes squad
• The only other team to face a ranked squad is Florida. The Gators, also partaking in the Mary Nutter Classic, begin play with a matchup against aforementioned 5th-ranked Arizona. They’ll then play Northwestern, with a looming matchup on Saturday against the top-ranked Bruins
