    <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">BRISTOL, Conn. (AP) -- Kansas will play Saint Joseph's and Michigan State will face Boston College in this year's Jimmy V Classic, it was announced Tuesday.

    The 11th annual event, named in honor of Jim Valvano, the late North Carolina State coach, and benefiting The V Foundation for Cancer Research, will be held Dec. 6 at Madison Square Garden in New York and will be televised by ESPN.

    This will be Kansas' first appearance in the Jimmy V Classic since the inaugural event when the Jayhawks lost 74-66 in overtime to Temple.

    The fourth annual Jimmy V Women's Basketball Classic will be Dec. 5, in Hartford, Conn., and will have Connecticut playing North Carolina. The game will be televised on ESPN2.</div>

    I think Kansas will own them, and Michigan St. vs BC will be an instant classic [​IMG]

    my boys will play Mich State-that is going to be a good game-i just wish we had sean williams back as our defensive starter for that game

    KU is my other quad. SJU will get owned by KU like Ray J said.

    as a BC student i'm happy to see them in the jimmy V classic, seems like they are getting some more national attention, could just be me though. I miss sean williams but i'm excited to see what dudley and smith can do this year.
