Give me the Tar Heels. This is listed as a neutral site game, but it should be a pro UNC crowd with this game being played in Charlotte. UNC should be hungry to get back into the win column after a tough loss to UK on Saturday, they had plenty of chances to win that game. RJ Davis is playing at an elite level, and UNC has enough bodies to throw at Javian McCollum to slow him down for the Sooners. UNC hands Oklahoma their first loss of the season on Wednesday.
