KenPom gives us a number of North Carolina -4 to -4.5 in their Saturday game against Virginia.  The actual line was coming in at Tar Heels -2.5, which has some value.  Be careful though as Virginia has won the last two in this series at home and are far from a bad team with their 20-7 Straight Up record, 14-1 at home.

UNC vs. UVA Betting Preview

Winners and Whiners is hardly impressed with Virginia as they offered up this analysis:

"Virginia has struggled to put points up all season long and they have put up 49 and 41 points, respectively, in their last two games. The Cavaliers are an elite defensive team but their inability to do anything offensively is going to be an issue. North Carolina is an average defensive team but they are very good offensively and they hold a major advantage on the glass here. Bacot and company should be able to control the boards and if the Cavaliers struggle to shoot the ball as they have, not even being at home is going to be the solution for the Hoos. Throw in the massive disparity in success at the charity stripe and you have to give the upper hand to the visitors as they come up with the victory here."

Virginia's average of 6.4 made 3-pointers per game this season is only 0.5 fewer made shots on average than the 6.9 per game North Carolina allows. North Carolina has shot at a 45.2% clip from the field this season, 5.3 percentage points higher than the 39.9% shooting opponents of Virginia have averaged.

Top performers include Isaac McKneely. He averages 2.4 made 3-pointers per game for the Cavaliers, scoring 12.4 points while shooting 46.0% from beyond the arc.

Reece Beekman is shooting 44.0% and averaging 15.7 points over the last 10 games for Virginia.
