UNC (+3) vs Duke

The only reason I am on this play is I think the Tarheels have on of the best starting 5 in all of NCAA D1 ball. BUT they have a very limited bench. In Maryland, FSU and Clemson, the Tarheels starting five get tired and the other team comes back or out lasts them in the end. Tired legs make for bad shooting. At home the crowd keeps the players in the game and energized. IMO look at the game vs. UConn as a key. The heels jump out on the huskies, second half get tired letting the huskies to do whatever they please. The emotion of the dean dome crowd pushes UNC to victory.
Only thing I worry about is if the crowd doesn't get them going soon enough and the blue devils run right by them. IMO this will be a very physical game and shooting percentage is gonna be big. Neither team can have a bad night. This tarheels team is tough at home. A lot tougher than in the past with a coach like Roy on the bench now.
Look for the rematch in Camron to be all Duke! Tonight I have to wear the carolina blue!
