The UConn vs. Tulane men's basketball game on Saturday is being moved up on the schedule due to a winter storm expected to hit the area.

The game was originally scheduled for 7:30 p.m. ET but will instead be moved up to 2 p.m. The game will still be played at the same venue, Gampel Pavilion, but broadcast information has changed; instead of airing on CBS Sports Network, the game will be exclusively streamed via CBSSports.com.

After a two-game road stretch in which UConn lost twice, once in overtime to Cincinnati and once in a close one to TU, which featured quadruple technicals and both Danny Hurley and Frank Haith being ejected in the second half, the Huskies need this win to keep their fading NCAA Tournament hopes afloat. After a 9-3 start overall, they've now dropped five of their last six.

The loser here between the Green Wave and Huskies will plummet to last in the league standings. Tulane is the only AAC team still winless in conference play, and Vegas odds suggest its woes will continue on the road come Saturday.

Viewing information 

  • When: Saturday at 2 p.m. ET
  • Where: Gampel Pavilion in Storrs, Connecticut
  • Live stream: CBSSports.com
