Virginia is 9-0 at home and will be sky-high for rival North Carolina in town. How good is North Carolina anyway? They already have three losses, including a pair to unranked teams Butler and Texas. The Tar Heels are 2-5 ATS in their last seven games vs. a team with a winning percentage above .600 and 6-20 ATS in their last 26 Sunday games.  From one of the most talented teams in ACC history, UNC lost Tyler Zeller, John Henson, Harrison Barnes and Kendall Marshall to the NBA after last season. Virginia is formidable, winning nine of the last ten games. Virginia is plus-4.3 in rebounding average this season, thanks in large part to the efforts of 6-8 junior Akil Mitchell (9.2 boards per game). The Cavaliers are on a 7-1-1 ATS run and 6-0-1 ATS in their last seven home games. The Tar Heels are 1-4 ATS in the last five meetings in Virginia and the home team is 11-5-1 ATS in the last 17 meetings. Play Virginia.
