College basketball picks for Nov. 13-19: Predictions for every Top 25 game

One wild week of college basketball is in the books and there were a few stunners. No one could have predicted that James Madison would go into the Breslin Center and upset No. 4 Michigan State, which was the headliner in a week that saw a lot of big name programs lose buy games.

The carnage resulted in a big shakeup in this week's AP Top 25 poll, which saw the Spartans tumble from No. 4 all the way to No. 18 while Duke dropped seven spots to No. 9 after losing at home to new No. 3 Arizona. There's a lot of huge games on tap for this week, so let's take a look at predictions for each game involving a Top 25 team on the schedule over the next seven days.

Note: Winner predictions are listed in bold.
