Top-ranked Ohio State, No. 2 Kansas and No. 6 San Diego State are the only unbeaten teams in Division I men's college basketball. Surviving the weekend that way could be tough for two of them.  Ohio State will travel to 22nd-ranked Illinois on Saturday (noon ET, CBS) for a Big Ten game. Illinois knocked off No. 18 Michigan State 71-62 on Tuesday on its home court.  Ohio State (19-0, 6-0) has plenty of scorers in freshman forward Jared Sullinger, senior swingman David Lighty and guards Will Buford and Jon Diebler, but the Buckeyes will have to contend with an Illinois team (14-5, 4-2) that is shooting nearly 60% from the field in league games played at home.  "We have so many weapons offensively," Lighty said Wednesday after Ohio State beat Iowa 70-48. "When we tie our defense to that, there aren't too many holes we have in our game."  The Illini could have trouble with Sullinger but are more experienced at point guard with senior Demetri McCamey and have two strong reserves in Brandon Paul and Jereme Richmond, who combined for 34 points against Michigan State.  Kansas will host No. 11 Texas in a Big 12 game Saturday (4 p.m. ET, CBS) in Lawrence. Wednesday, Texas (15-3, 3-0) ended Texas A&M's winning streak at 13 with an 81-60 rout in Austin.  Kansas forwards Marcus and Markieff Morris, twins who are juniors, go against Texas big men Gary Johnson and Tristan Thompson.  Monday, Kansas (18-0, 3-0) had no trouble at Baylor, winning 85-65. The Jayhawks shot a season-high 62.5% from the field.  San Diego State (20-0, 5-0 in the Mountain West) doesn't play this weekend but will be busy preparing for its game Wednesday in Provo, Utah, against No. 9 Brigham Young. The Aztecs will try to slow Jimmer Fredette, the Division I scoring leader at 25.8 points a game.
