This has been a really disappointing season for North Carolina as they enter this game at a woeful 11-17 on the season. They have suffered a lot of injuries, and now that they have Cole Anthony back the offense has gotten a lot more reliable, but the defense remains problematic. They have allowed 70+ points to five of their last six opponents. The Syracuse zone has not been nearly as effective this season as the Orange have allowed each of its last eight opponents to score 70+. This one gets into the 150s at least, so play on the OVER.
