North Carolina at UAB

A look ahead spot North Carolina with top-ranked Michigan State on deck.  North Carolina (4-1) likes to run, but this is their first road game of the season, which can be tough on shooters to adjust. The UNDER is 5-2 in the Tar Heels last seven road games. UNC plays strong defense for Roy Williams, and the UNDER is 8-3 after scoring more than 90 points in their previous game. Alabama-Birmingham shoots 43.8% as a team (208th in the nation), and the UNDER is 35-15-1 in the Blazers last 51 non-conference games. The UNDER is 11-5 in their last 16 home games against a team with a winning road record, so look for more defense than oddsmakers expect. Play North Carolina/Alabama-Birmingham UNDER the Total.
