The Spartans enter this Champions Classic matchup looking to bounce back from a one-point loss against Gonzaga last week. Michigan State let a double-digit lead slip away in the final minutes, and dropped to 1-1 on the season with the loss.

Kentucky is a perfect 2-0 on the year with blowout wins over Howard and Duquesne to open the season last week. This matchup against the Spartans in Indianapolis will be the first true test of the year for the Wildcats.
