ESPN continues to unveil brackets for major regular season tournaments on Tuesday, and one of the tournaments full of heavy-hitters happens to be the Orlando Classic.

More from Mens Basketball

The tournament, which takes place at the HP Field House, runs from Nov. 27-28 and Nov. 30. Tournament teams are highlighted by No. 10-ranked Kansas, No. 18-ranked Michigan State along with Tennessee and Marquette.

All four teams are paired up with mid-majors in the first round, but set up potentially exciting matchups in the semifinals.

On the bottom of the bracket, we could get a potential semifinal of Michigan State vs. Marquette. It would be a huge test for first-year head coach Steve Wojciechowski at Marquette, going up against a grizzled veteran like Tom Izzo.

However, this tournament also features many of the “Power 5” programs who face life without the faces of their programs from a season ago.

Kansas will be looking to get in a groove without star forward Andrew Wiggins, the No. 1 overall pick in this past NBA draft. Michigan State won’t have the heart of its program, Adreian Payne, back after being picked No. 15 by the Atlanta Hawks.

The Jayhawks may have the toughest go of it in the first round, having to take on Rhode Island. The Rams are coming off a losing season, but have some intriguing talent on the roster—including 4-star shooting guard Jared Terrell.

The championship game is set for either 1pm ET on ESPN or 4pm ET on ESPN2 depending on the matchup.
