What to watch while finding alternate uses for your excess candy canes...
• 5:00 p.m. — New Mexico Bowl: Nevada vs. New Mexico; 8:00 p.m. — Pioneer Las Vegas Bowl: BYU vs. UCLA. Wait, no non-sports-related sponsorship tie-in to the New Mexico Bowl? Not Interested. [ESPN]
• 4:30 p.m. — College Basketball: Stanford vs. Texas Tech; 6:30 p.m. - Texas at Michigan State; 8:30 p.m. — Illinois vs. Missouri. Some riveting basketball here. Let's ask Dick Vitale what he thinks about the games. Apparently Michigan State will ... be trapped in a box, while Missouri will ... um, be caught in a wind storm, I think. [ESPN2]
• 8:00 p.m. — NFL: Cowboys at Panthers. I expect big things out of Rick Romo tonight. [NFL Network]
