I'm new to the board so first just want to say hi. I have what could be some possible important info for those thinking about betting this game. I've followed UNC basketball for almost 40 years and can usually tell when they don't have a good match up. With that said, I think the physical match up favors Kentucky. UNC's guards are small and Marcus Paige has struggled the last couple games. Both guards I believe will struggle against the bigger Harrison twins. TO's have been an issue for UNC this year and I believe that will continue. Paige is the only one capable of making a three point shot and Carolina depends on their size up front which I think Kentucky can match. Now for the kicker and the real info where the lines makers will make a mistake, UNC had exams this week and has only had two full days of practice on Wednesday and Friday. The last three years, UNC has struggled coming off of exams. They gave up 62 points in the second half last year to ECU. Struggled with App state the year before that. I believe they will come out flat and besides that, I really don't think they are that good to begin with. They have played pretty well defensively so far. Just to guess, I think the Line will be close to a pick em. Should be more like 6 or 7 and I think UK wins by at least 10. I'll be bold on my first prediction here and say take it to the bank, especially if the line is close to a pick em.
