Kentucky vs. Duke. That’s really all the intro that’s needed.
It’s No. 2 vs. No. 5. It’s two of the most successful programs in college basketball history. It’s two future Hall-of-Fame coaches. It’s the defending national champion against the program that nearly went undefeated last year. It’s an amalgam of four-to-five likely 2016 first-round picks, which doesn’t even include Grayson Allen, who has poured in 54 points in the Blue Devils’ first two games.
The first game of this year’s Champions Classic is the most anticipated non-conference game of the season. It’s set to tip at 7:30 p.m. ET and will be broadcast on ESPN, but if you can’t get to a TV, here’s how to watch online or on mobile, including a free option from Sling TV:
