The atmosphere at Madison Square Garden when Kentucky and Kansas face off in the nightcap of the inaugural Champions Classic figures to be electric.

The hype surrounding the game is more befitting of a game played in March, but the bottom line is that the calendar still reads November. As he coaches and evaluates his team, John Calipari is not going to forget that.
