Michigan State Spartans stun Kentucky Wildcats with dominant Champions Classic performance. Can the Wildcats recover from their $22 million NIL investment disappointment?

Andy Patton breaks down both Champions Classic matchups at Madison Square Garden, analyzing Michigan State's 17-point victory over Kentucky and Duke Blue Devils' win against Kansas Jayhawks. Guest DeShaun Tate, who attended the games, provides insider perspectives on Kentucky's concerning lack of identity despite massive spending, Tom Izzo's team playing March-caliber basketball in November, and Cameron Boozer's consistent excellence for Duke. The discussion covers Jaxson Kohler's breakout performance, Kansas playing without star freshman Darryn Peterson, and whether Cayden Boozer is Duke's long-term point guard solution.

Patton also breaks down Wednesday's pair of ranked-on-ranked matchups, including Arizona at UConn and Illinois hosting Alabama at the United Center in Chicago.

Tune in for expert analysis on college basketball's premier early-season showcase and what it means for the SEC, Big Ten, and ACC races ahead.
