If you like offense, this will be a fun game as both teams love to run. Kansas averages 75 ppg and is 14th in the nation in field goal shooting (.485%) led by 6-10 Thomas Robinson and senior guard Tyshawn Taylor. They've had to slow the pace down against NC State, Detroit and Purdue the last three games, but UNC likes to run and the OVER is 4-1 in the Jayhawks last five NCAA Tournament games as a favorite of 0.5-6.5. North Carolina is all about running and attacking opponents with their depth, and are No. 2 in the nation in points (82 ppg) and fourth in assists. The OVER is 5-2 in the Tar Heels last seven games following a straight up win and I see both teams running all game long. Play Kansas/North Carolina OVER the total.
