North Carolina always has the reputation for offense and running, but they have been slowed considerably in their first six games - especially against a defensive-oriented Butler team that held them under 70 points. Iowa has held all but one opponent to under 70 points, and that was Texas who barely got there at 71. Iowa likes to play in the half court, and will not allow the Heels to get the crowd amped up and run for 40 minutes, and they come into this contest on four straight games UNDER the total. The Big-10 has long been a defensive conference, and that has prevailed vs. Carolina who owns a 6-0 mark to the UNDER in their last six vs. the Big-10. Take the UNDER in this one.
