Pittsburgh @No. 21 Notre Dame

7 P.M. [ESPN]

The Irish (19-5, 9-3) have won six of their past seven games and are hanging near the top of the Big East. Pittsburgh, after opening the season 11-0, has been struggling. The Panthers (19-6, 7-5) had been trying to get along without guard Levance Fields, who missed 12 games with a foot injury. In Fields' first game back, Pittsburgh lost to Marquette by 18 points last week.
