North Carolina is the bigger name and is favored, but Notre Dame is ranked higher and the better all-around team, especially on defense. The Tar Heels are 4-9-1 ATS against a team with a winning record. North Carolina has just beaten a pair of rugged, physical Top 20 teams the last two nights and now has to face the Irish. Notre Dame had easier times with Miami (70-63) and Duke (76-64). They led Duke 41-26 at the half yesterday and allowed just 3-of-17 three-pointers. This is its first ACC tourney final appearance, while Duke and North Carolina have been here many times. The Irish are on a 4-0 ATS run and are highly motivated. Play on Notre Dame.
