Thanksgiving weekend has been stuffed with tons of top-10 matchups. We get another great one on Saturday when No. 2 Maryland faces No. 7 Stanford in the Bahamas for the Baha Mar Hoops Pink Flamingo Championship.
Not an ideal way for both teams to enter into this one, as the Terps fell to NC State, 78-60, and the Cardinal fell to USF by a 3-pointer with under four seconds left, 57-54.
The last time these two top-10 teams faced off was in the 2007-08 season when the Cardinal defeated the Terps to advance to the Final Four.
