North Carolina just beat the number one ranked Duke team in the hottest game of the College Basketball season thus far (certainly the most bet on).
The Tar Heels come into Saturday's game hovering around the .500 mark Against The Spread. Over the past ten games, UNC now ranks as a 7 on a scale of 1 to 10 covering as they've gone 7-3 ATS in their last ten.
UNC will face off against FSU on Saturday and owns this series. They are 7-1 against the Noles. Note that Florida State beat them in their last meeting back in January 2018. That one was at home for FSU. Three of the last four Tar Heels home games against the Noles were blowouts.
Keep in mind these teams have identical records at 21-5. Both are ranked.
Despite having the same records, Sagarin indicated a line of -9 for North Carolina. Books were offering UNC early at -7.
