6. College Basketball
Pittsburgh vs. Texas Tech in the Legends Classic. (Mississippi State and Washington State in the second game of the HDNet doubleheader.)
HDNet, 5:30 p.m.

7. School of Rock
Jack Black plays a failed rock guitarist who takes a teacher's job to make ends meet. (He doesn't know what they pay teachers these days, does he?) But he soon turns his grade school class into a rockin' band. Joan Cusack plays the oddly un-obligatory not-so-hot love interest. But she's very funny.

Miami at Phoenix. (Dallas and the Lakers in game two of ESPN's doubleheader.)
ESPN, 8 p.m.

9. The Polar Express
Tom Hanks contributes multiple voices to this delighted animated tale about a train conductor who guides a young boy to the North Pole. It was made for the kiddies, but it's fun for the whole family.
ABC, 8 p.m.

10. College Football
UCLA at Arizona State.
ESPN 2, 9:30 p.m.
