Well, another 1-1 split on college BBall as another pick decided to lay an egg in the closing minutes...but Miami rolled.

Today, take North Carolina -3.
The tarheels are a much better team than Virginia and although they are young, I trust them in this one. NC is 10-3 and was riding high until they got "jacked up" (as my boys on NFL Primetime would put it) by Miami at home. But, that makes me want to take them tonight. Virginia is not good. They have lost at home to Florida State and Fordham this season. North Carolina has gone on the road and won at Kentucky and at Virginia Tech and was due a letdown after beating NC State. They will be refocused and read to take it to an overmatched Virginia squad.
