The <a href="https://www.on3.com/college/duke-blue-devils/">Duke Blue Devils</a> and <a href="https://www.on3.com/college/michigan-state-spartans/">Michigan State Spartans</a> are getting ready to play what should be an exciting early-season matchup on Tuesday night. With both teams coming into the game ranked but with a loss on their records already, it’s going to be an incredibly important non-conference game for both programs to win.



The Blue Devils got off to a hot start this season, with a dominant win against an overmatched <a href="https://www.on3.com/college/dartmouth-big-green/">Dartmouth</a> team. However, Duke then ran into trouble against <a href="https://www.on3.com/college/arizona-wildcats/">Arizona</a>, one of the best teams in the country. In Michigan State’s case, the Spartans suffered an early season upset against <a href="https://www.on3.com/college/james-madison-dukes/">James Madison</a>. However, with the Dukes now ranked, that loss doesn’t look as it initially did.



This is one of two games in the Champions Classic, a marquee double-header of college basketball games between historic programs. That’s going to make this a neutral site game and it will lead into a game between <a href="https://www.on3.com/college/kansas-jayhawks/">Kansas</a> and <a href="https://www.on3.com/college/kentucky-wildcats/">Kentucky</a>.
