DI Podcast: Episode Two
Tuesday evening represents the biggest day of the young college basketball season with four of the nation's heavyweights battling in the State Farm Champions Classic at the United Center in Chicago. Two of those four are of particular interest to Duke fans, as the No. 4 ranked Blue Devils square off with the No. 5 Kansas Jayhawks.
In addition to serving as an elite basketball game to start the season off, the battle features two of the most talked about freshmen in the nation in Jabari Parker of Duke and Andrew Wiggins of Kansas.
