Yes, I know this is essentially a home game for the Tar Heels. But, I think Isaiah Thomas and the Huskies have what it takes to keep this game close. This Huskies team is more experienced and won't be rattled by the crowd. This game should be a barn-burner. The Huskies average 83.1 points per game and North Carolina put up triple figures in their opening round game. But, they also gave up 87 to Long Island. Washington will get theirs today. They are a good rebounding team and that could spell trouble for the Tar Heels who are just 5-13 ATS since last season vs. teams that outrebound their opponents by 4+ per game. North Carolina is also just 2-9 ATS over that same span on the road vs. teams that outscore their opponents by 12+ points per game. Huskies head coach Lorenzo Romar is 76-51 ATS as an underdog and 26-12 ATS vs. up-tempo teams like NC (teams that average 62+ shots per game). I like the Huskies to cover this number.
