All 12 B1G teams have won a game so far except for Michigan State, who fell to top-ranked North Carolina in the Carrier Classic Friday night, 67-55. The schedule does not get easier yet for the Spartans, who travel to Madison Square Garden to face #6 Duke in the Champions Classic Tuesday night. Also facing off that night are #2 Kentucky and #12 Kansas in the new event that will feature these four teams for the next several seasons as they all get the opportunity to play each other.
