What to watch

These two met last season on Dec. 3, 2024, with O’Bannon coming away with a 72-60 victory at home. O’Bannon built the lead early with quarters of 20-15, 20-15 and 20-15 before closing 12-16 in the fourth. That game — and the rivalry feel — gives this nonleague meeting extra bite as both programs look to establish rhythm early in the season.
