Florida Gulf Coast vs. North Carolina

Premium Pick

The Florida Gulf Coast Eagles made a lot of noise in the NCAA Tournament just a few short years ago, and they are back and have the talent and depth to compete favorably with North Carolina. North Carolina is a tough matchup for most teams with their size and athletic ability in the paint, but the Eagles are a very athletic team, one that has won the battle off the glass by 15 per game over their last five, and have limited opponents on the offensive end with solid defense. They played Texas A&M to a 10-point game on the road, and I think they will limit the Heels' second chance opportunities to keep the scoring down from the posted total. Take the UNDER.
