North Carolina Basketball Odds - North Carolina at Miami of Florida

  • Tuesday, February 14th, 2012

    North Carolina Basketball Betting

    The 7th-ranked North Carolina Tar Heels visit Miami of Florida on Wednesday night in a game that can be seen on ESPN. North Carolina basketball odds should get the bulk of the action at the online sportsbook.

    North Carolina 21-4 SU, 12-12 ATS, 8-2 ACC

    The Tar Heels bounced back from losing to Duke by routing Virginia this past weekend. Both of those games were at home where North Carolina has been solid against the point spread. On the road, the Tar Heels are just 2-4 ATS. North Carolina has as much talent as any team in the country but they don’t always play up to their potential. That makes betting North Carolina basketball odds very tricky. The Tar Heels lead the country in scoring at over 83 points per game but their defense is nothing special.

    Miami of Florida 15-8, 10-9-1 ATS, 6-4 ACC

    The Hurricanes have the look of an NCAA Tournament team but they do need a few more wins down the stretch. Whether they can get this one against North Carolina seems doubtful. The Hurricanes have been a pleasant surprise in the ACC as they are 6-4 in the conference. The problem on Wednesday is that Miami simply doesn’t have the offense to match up with Carolina so unless the Tar Heels take the night off this looks like a loss.

    Series Trends

    North Carolina has won 9 of the last 10 in this series and they are also 6-4 ATS. The Tar Heels have been very good in Miami, winning five of the last six meetings and going 4-2 against the spread. Three of the last four have gone over the total.

    College Basketball Predictions

    We’ll take a shot here and lay the points with North Carolina basketball odds and hope the Tar Heels show up motivated to play. We’ll also take the game over the total as the Tar Heels should look to make this a high scoring game.
