The NCAA season is less than two months away, and the tip time for the first games of the college basketball season (and Michigan State’s first game) have now been set. Duke and Kansas will square off first at 7pm ET in Madison Square Garden. Michigan State and Kentucky will play immediately after at 9:30pm ET.
These two games are part of the State Farms Champions Classic, hosted of course in New York City. This will be a pretty monumental clash between the four teams many consider to be the top in the league. NBC Sports currently has them ranked like this in their preseason rankings:
- #1. Michigan State
- #2 Kentucky
- #3 Duke
- #4 Kansas
There is a ton of hype around this Michigan State team and all eyes will be on them in The Garden on November 5th.
