Duke at Kentucky Date 11/13/2012 9:00:00 PMLocation Atlanta, GALive StatsLinkTV ESPN Team Stats Embed This Chart On Your Website
Every year, ESPN celebrates the greatness that is college basketball by showcasing a dozen games, back-to-back, on the network’s many channels, effectively putting those of us who eat, sleep and breathe basketball into a hoops coma.
The tip-off marathon culminates Tuesday, Nov. 1, when two of the nation’s traditional powerhouse programs meet in the State Farm Champions Classic. No. 8 Duke Blue Devils take on No. 3 Kentucky Wildcats in the Georgia Dome, the site of this year’s Final Four. Game time is scheduled for 9:30 p.m.
No. 14 Michigan State battles No. 7 Kansas in the first matchup of the Classic’s doubleheader. These four teams met in Madison Square Garden for the first Champions Classic last year.
Then, No. 2 Kentucky beat No. 11 Kansas 75-65 behind the stellar play of Terrence Jones, who flew to the NBA after Kentucky won its eighth National Championship last April.

ATLANTA Seth Curry often chews on his mouthpiece, the transparent dental safeguard protruding at all angles during stoppages in play.
Some could call it a nervous habit, others a sign of unconscious relaxation.
