WKY @ LVILLE | 12/01 | 6:00 PM EST11:24 AM
WKU is a good team that was the preseason pick to win Conference USA, but this spread seems quite a bit too low as every simulation I have found has Louisville winning by double digits at home. Per usual, the Cards are a terrific defensive club, holding each of their first three opponents to below 40 percent shooting from the field. In addition, WKU starting guard Taveion Hollingsworth will be a game-time decision after suffering multiple injuries last week. He leads the team in averaging 19.0 points.

DUKE -4
MICHST @ DUKE | 12/01 | 7:30 PM ESTYESTERDAY 6:51 PM
I'm a Michigan State fan and I know all too well that Sparty rarely wins its Champions Classic game -- it hasn't had a W in this event since 2015 and has never beaten Duke in it, going 0-3. Tom Izzo just 2-12 all-time against Duke coach Mike Krzyzewski overall. The Blue Devils simply have more talent again this year and get this game at home instead of a neutral site (no fans allowed, though). It's the 50th all-time AP Top 10 matchup at Cameron. Duke has won 33 of the previous 49 and seven of the last nine.

Rotation #623
Michigan State +3 over Duke
The Spartans lost Cassius Winston and Xavier Tillman to the NBA and Duke lost their top three players to the NBA as well. When it comes to experience on the court the Spartans have the edge. Joshua Langford is back after missing last year and Josh Hauser will be a great addition coming over from Marquette. Duke always reloads well, but early in the season I like the Spartans proven ability to grab rebounds and share the basketball better. Michigan State has a proven bench and in a high profile game that can mean the difference between a 2 point win or loss. This should be a great game, but in closing time I will go with the overall experience and toughness that coach Izzo and his team bring to the court. Having no fans really hurts any home court advantage a team could have. Take Michigan State.

C. MICHIGAN @ FIU | 12/01 | 7:00 PM EST
FIU -4
FIU began its season with two matchups against Div. II Flagler. What were expected to be tune-up games turned into tight contests. That’s placed value on FIU in today’s matchup against Central Michigan. The Chippewas are a foul-prone team that shoots subpar from the field. Grab FIU.
