First Big Test For UNC Bigs
The North Carolina Tar Heels won their first game of the 2024-25 college basketball season, beating up on Elon at home. Now they hit the road for a huge game against Kansas, which will be a huge test for the bigs of UNC. Jae'Lyn WIthers among others will be tasked with stopping the next Perry Ellis, the hyper-experienced Hunter Dickinson, on the road in one of the first marquee matchups of the season. Interior defense, combined with outside shooting, will decide if the Tar Heels can surprise the top team in the country in this game.
Kansas Combines New and Familiar Faces to Start Season
The Kansas Jayhawks are ranked first in the nation going into Friday's huge North Carolina vs Kansas tilt at Allen Fieldhouse. They look different on the perimeter than they did a season ago, with Kevin McCullar Jr. moving onto the NBA. But they still have Hunter Dickinson on the interior, who will look to make a difference against a North Carolina team still figuring itself out on the interior. That, combined with the home-court advantage in Lawrence, could swing this game in Kansas' favor on Friday night.
North Carolina vs Kansas Betting Pick
We are going to take the points with the underdog in Friday's North Carolina vs Kansas showdown. Both of these teams have a lot of moving parts to deal with early in the season, which should prevent Kansas from doing enough consistent scoring to roll over the Tar Heels. Look for this game to be settled within a couple of possessions in what is clearly the best game of the night in college hoops.
