Fairfield at North Carolina

Another cupcake for No. 1 North Carolina! Even without standout guard Marcus Paige, the Tar Heels proved to be a deep, talented team in its season opener after a 91-67 rout of Temple. The Tar Heels return four starters (including Paige), and their experience and depth showed against Temple as they dominated inside and outside. North Carolina outrebounded Temple 49-32 in its opener, while Fairfield was outrebounded in its debut, 47-24. The Tar Heels are 25-11-1 ATS at home against a team with a losing road record, plus 7-0 ATS over versus a team with a losing record. Fairfield fell to Yale 70-57 in its opener and will struggle against the Tar Heels' height after being outrebounded badly by the Bulldogs. Fairfield is 0-7-1 ATS against the ACC. Play North Carolina.
