It may be too early to learn much about what the 2014-2015 basketball season has in store, but the ACC/Big Ten Challenge is always a good measuring stick for those two conferences. The action begins on Monday, but Tuesday has the big game between Ohio State and Louisville. A couple potential bubble games are also on Tuesday night when Illinois heads to Miami and North Carolina State travels to Purdue. All of those teams are off to quality starts. There are six more games on Wednesday, including Duke and Wisconsin. Those are both teams we have projected as number one seeds in the NCAA Tournament.
