As the action really heats up, we're back on the nation's college hoop show to talk all about it. From the Bulls of South Florida running in Tampa, to the sudden faltering of North Carolina and Wisconsin and some Northwestern and Illinois talk too, it's all part of this edition of "College Basketball Coast to Coast!"

Host T.J. Rives returns with his guests to go over the latest mid-week and look ahead to this weeekend.

First, the 17 year voice of USF Bulls basketball on the radio, Jim Lighthall, is on the show talking their amazing streak of 14 wins in 15 games. The Bulls sit atop the American Conference at 9-1 (which they've never had that record in any conference) and are ahead of the likes of Memphis, Charlotte and UAB. How and why has it happened and most importantly, can they sustain? Get Jim's insight.

Next, Chris Dobbertean of BloggingTheBracket.com is back and ready to discet what some mid-week conference losses mean on his field of 68. Carolina losing to Clemson and Wisconsin losing a thrid straight and this time against a medicore Michigan is going to shake up his top two seed lines. Plus, how big a Saturday is it for Gonzaga at Kentucky? And, who are the teams he has right on the cut line to get in the Big Dance?

Finally, some Big Ten talk with George Ofman, a 40 year veteran of Chicago sports media and coverng the games. George has more on Northwestern vying for another NCAA berth and do they have the best player in the Big Ten in Boo Buie? George also talks the Terrence Shannon/Illinois controversy and what about the Illini chances come March? George also discusses the Loyola-Chicago Ramblers chances in the A-10 to make a run and play there way into "March Madness."
