College basketball on television: Pearl Harbor Classic

The 74th anniversary of Pearl Harbor is actually the occasion for some great college hoops as No. 7 Oklahoma meets No. 9 Villanova in the first game of the Pearl Harbor Classic in Hawaii. Oregon plays Navy in the second game.

Oklahoma is 5-0 after destroying Central Arkansas 111-68 last Thursday. Lon Kruger’s Sooners own wins over Memphis and Wisconsin to this point. They are led by Buddy Hield, who is averaging 21.4 points and 5.8 rebounds per game. Isaiah Cousins is chipping in 13.2 points per game.

Villanova is 7-0 after beating Saint Joseph’s 86-72 last week. The Wildcats have beaten Nebraska, Stanford and Georgia Tech. Josh Hart leads Jay Wright’s team in scoring at 15.3 points per game.

No. 11 Purdue is also in action Monday night. The 8-0 Boilermakers play IUPUI in Mackey Arena on ESPNU. That game is followed by No. 4 Iowa State playing host to Buffalo at 9 p.m. on the U.
