UNC basketball and Michigan State meet again on Thanksgiving Day (4:30 p.m., FOX ) in a top-25 showdown at the Fort Myers Tip-Off in Florida.

Ranked No. 17 in the USA TODAY Sports coaches poll and 16th in the AP Top 25, the Tar Heels (6-0) have stacked six wins to start a season for the first time since the 2016-17 campaign, which ended with UNC winning the national championship.

No. 12/11 Michigan State (6-0) is in its 31st season under veteran coach Tom Izzo, with wins against No. 18/19 Kentucky (4-2) and No. 21/22 Arkansas (5-1) on the Spartans’ resume.

UNC has a 13-5 record against Michigan State, but the Spartans earned a 94-91 overtime win last season at the Maui Invitational. Four of UNC's five losses have come against a top-25 Michigan State squad.
