Terrific night to curl up in front the TV with some hot chocolate, the remote, and, for leisure reading, this article on impending food crisis. To everyone taking off tonight or tomorrow morning for the holiday, safe travels. To the rest of you, we’ll be on the scene early tomorrow as usual.

7 pm – No. 7 Notre Dame vs. No. 8 Texas in Maui. Bonus: Bilas and Raftery on the call. The Horns are 3-point favorites, but we’d take the Irish here.

7:30 pm – Cleveland at New York Knicks. ESPN is blowing this game out, including a TV interview with Stephen A. Even Colin Cowherd deigned to talk about the NBA today, and according to a reader who was listening, referenced our post on LeBron from yesterday.

7:30 pm – Western Michigan at No. 15 Ball State. Can the unbeaten Cardinals close out a perfect regular season? If so, will Jason Whitlock lobby for the Chiefs to draft Nate Davis?

7:45 pm – No. 18 Florida vs. Washington. Didn’t like what we saw last night from the Gators. Calathes needs major help, and Brockman could go for 20-20 against that meek frontline.

8 pm – Charlie Brown Thanksgiving, ABC. A taste.

8 pm – House, FOX. Dr. Cameron. Also, Hugh Laurie is awesome. [CRM's recommendation]

9:30 pm – No. 1 UNC vs. Oregon. The first question is whether or not Hansbrough will play; second is whether or not the Ducks cover 17.

10 pm – The Office. Back-to-back episodes on TBS. Michael’s office gets soiled, and then male bonding.

10 pm – No. 23 Kansas vs. Syracuse. It’s played in Kansas City, so slight advantage to the Jayhawks, but we’ll pick the ‘Cuse here. Onuaku vs. Aldrich should be an absolute slugfest inside. Flynn vs. Collins = Fun!
