National title rematch: #9 Michigan State at #11 North Carolina

big matchup at 9pm tonight down in Chapel Hill.

UNC blow away Michigan State twice at Ford Field and ended the 2009 season winning the National title over the Spartans

Michigan State has 3 of 5 starters returning plus many other players that played in that game last year. North Carolina's only starter from that Natl title game was Deon Thompson.

I think Michigan State is the better team than UNC this season but tonight should be a great battle.

I think UNC wins this game at home by a 75-69 margin. I think MSU struggles with UNC's size and UNC rides the home crowd to victory

your prediction?

and also this is the Big Ten's best shot to win the ACC-Big Ten Challenge

unlike in many previous years this year they have a wonderful chance.

I'm calling an upset tonight as well. I think Wake Forest upset #8 Purdue on the road
