These games often feature a lot of hype, and NBA offensive-ready players, but the intensity often translates more on the defensive side of the court. As a result, the expected track meet will probably be riding the brakes here. The Tar Heels come in at 5-1, but their high-octane offense was slowed to 71 points vs. upstart Butler in their only defeat. The Hoosiers have a strong presence inside and are ranked No. 16 in FG percentage defense at 35.5% through their first six games. The Hoosiers’ offense is well diversified, but their top two games in the early going shows them stalling at 66 points vs. Georgetown before overtime, and 64 vs. Georgia. The Heels are now 23-11 to the UNDER when facing a team with a winning home record. This one doesn't make it to the lofty total. This one finishes UNDER.
