North Carolina vs. Kansas

A young North Carolina squad is getting better and getting hot at the right time, on a 9-2 SU, 8-3 ATS run. The Tar Heels are No. 14 nationally in scoring with a balanced offensive attack behind sophomore guard P.J. Hairston (14.5 ppg), sophomore forward James Michael McAdoo (14.5 points) and junior forward Reggie Bullock (14.2 ppg). They have the offense to hang with mighty Kansas and have revenge on their minds for Coach Roy Williams. Kansas is the team that ended their 2012 run with a 80-67 victory in the Midwest Regional final – the second straight year the Tar Heels have fallen just short of the Final Four. The Tar Heels are 14-6 ATS in their last 20 NCAA Tournament games. Kansas was pushed hard by Western Kentucky before surviving 64-57 as 20-point chalk. Western Kentucky led 31-30 at halftime and was still within four points with 28 seconds remaining. Grab the dog in what shapes up as a close, even game. Play North Carolina.
