The North Carolina vs. Notre Dame betting line can be found at MyBookie.ag. This is the ACC Men’s Tournament Final game.
The 19th-ranked Tar Heels will try to get over the hump for the first time in seven years Saturday night against No. 11 Notre Dame appearing in its first-ever conference title game. The Irish were previously 0-6 in semifinal appearances during their 18-year run in the Big East.
North Carolina (24-10) last won the ACC tournament championship in 2008, but has made it to the title game in three of the past four years.
"I played in the ACC championship game my freshman year (in 2013), and we came really close," junior guard Marcus Paige said. "We played a great game, and we were unable to come through and win it. So we'll have some extra motivation there.
"We're going to be hungry. At that point once they throw the ball up, you can't worry about being tired.
Betting action on this game was relatively balanced with the Tar Heels a -2.5 or -3 point favorite depending on the sportsbook.
Back in January Notre Dame handed North Carolina a one-point loss though the Tar Heels had won the previous two games in this series last season, one of which was by just two points.
The Tar Heels are 6-0 Against The Spread in their last 6 neutral site games and 5-1 ATS in their last 6 vs. Atlantic Coast while the Fighting Irish are 5-1 ATS in their last 6 games following a Straight Up win and 4-0 ATS in their last 4 vs. Atlantic Coast.
