Tonight showcases the best young talent in the country on one floor at the United Center in Chicago. #1 Kentucky and #2 Michigan State will go at it first at 7:30 in a battle of two very balanced teams. Kentucky has possibly one of the best load of Freshman since the Fab Five. John Calipari has done a masterful job recruiting and lands the top prospects year after year. Michigan State has plenty of stability on offense. The other matchup that everyone wants to see is between #4 Duke and #5 Kansas at 9:30 after the MSU/UK game. Freshman phenom Andrew Wiggins will take the floor for the Jayhawks against Jabari Parker for Duke. These two were #1 and #2 in the recruiting class last year. They are also projected to be the 1st two picks of the upcoming NBA Draft. Rodney Hood is a beast down low at Forward for the Blue Devils. This game will be very exciting and electrifying.
Kentucky 73 Michigan State 65 I think both of these teams will go far, but I think Julius Randle has a monster game for the Wildcats.
Kansas 85 Duke 83 OT This game will be one for the ages, but I think Kansas will win the battle on the boards.
