North Carolina is a Top 10 team as usual, but the Tar Heels did lose their top five scorers from last season and that has to have some impact at the offensive end especially early in the season. Garrison Brooks is the only returning starter and he averaged 7.9 points and the Tar Heels also are dealing with some injuries at the guard position hurting their depth. NC-Wilmington is picked to finish near the bottom of the Colonial Athletic Association, but has three returning starters, including Ty Gadsen and Kai Toews at the guard positions. UNC has gone UNDER five of its last six non-conference games and five of its last six road games. The Seahawks are still in a rebuilding mode after coming off a 10-23 season and will be outclassed by the Tar Heels. Play the game to stay UNDER the total.

Pro Picks
NC Wilmington at North Carolina
The young Tar Heels boast a lot of talent, and have their final tune up before heading to Wake Forest to open ACC play. NC Wilmington is in a tough spot, as the Seahawks have had trouble putting points on the board. NC Wilmington has stepped on the big stage twice this season against BCS conference opponents, and averaged just 50.5 points per game. So sgainst the run-and-gun, fast-breaking Tar Heels getting quick and easy baskets, this one has the potential to get ugly early. The Tar Heels have been 15-5 ATS at home vs. a team with a losing road record, so they show up for these type of opponents. The Seahawks' 1-6 ATS road mark does not portend well here. Play on North Carolina.
