The great healer … Oral Roberts

#10 Butler should have no problem taking care of Cleveland St. tonight. But if you have a problem finding Butler on a map, check out our video Know Your Mid-Major: Butler which might make an apperance on ESPNU tonight. And after you're done, here are a few things to watch for as you wait, with bated breath, for the start of the Big East Tourney tomorrow. (Like Oral Roberts reveling in the magnificence of the auto-bid).

MEN'S BASKETBALL
IUPUI @ Oral Roberts (7 ET ESPN)
As they say, there are only three sure things in life: Death, Taxes and an Oral Roberts bid to the NCAA Tourney. Watch them lock it up tonight.

NBA
Grizzlies @ Suns (10 ET)
How do you ensure your team maintains its momentum after a huge victory over the Spurs? Why, you conveniently schedule the mighty Grizz of course.

Raptors at Lakers (10:30 ET)
Do you remember which team Kobe was playing against when he put up 81? It was the Raptors, and it was no fluke, he averages 28.0 a game against them. Ok. It was kind of a fluke.

NHL
Devils @ Canadiens (7:30 ET V.S.)
The Habs' wunderkind Carey Price is the future. Martin Brodeur is the past (and present). Don't expect a high-scoring affair.

WOMEN'S BASKETBALL
Louisville @ UConn (7 ET)
The Big East title is on the line, but we can't help thinking it's just another game for the Huskies, who have probably been prepping to meet Tennessee in the Tournament since August.

BOXING
Joe Louis: America's Hero … Betrayed (7:45 ET HBO)
Relive the legacy of one of the greatest heavyweights of all-time. You know, back when the heavyweight division actually meant something.
