No. 23 Kentucky men’s basketball is set to duel against No. 7 Duke in Atlanta, Georgia, on Tuesday, Nov. 12, as a part of the annual StateFarm Champions Classic.
The annual contest features Kentucky, Duke, Kansas and Michigan State with the matchups and locations changing each year. Starting in 2011, the event was set to run through 2025 until its renewal through 2028.
Both teams are heading into the matchup with a 2-0 record under their belts, but this game will be the first time each program has faced a brawny opponent this season.
Kentucky has totaled 203 combined points in its first two games, beating Wright State 103-62 and Bucknell 100-72.
