T.M. Selection: North Carolina.

I like North Carolina to cover the spread against Pittsburgh in this game on Wednesday. North Carolina looked a lot better in their most recent game after 2 bad ones and I think they will be able to beat up on Pittsburgh here on their home court. North Carolina have looked even better on their home court this year and most of their games there have been big wins for them. They are 13-1 in home games this year with 12 of those wins coming by 10+ points and the 1 loss they suffered at home was to Duke who is 1 of the best teams in the country. Every other home game in conference play that they have played this year ended as a win for them by 10+ points too. Pittsburgh is not 1 of the better teams in this conference and I don't think they will be able to keep up with North Carolina in this road game. Pittsburgh has struggled in conference play this year with a 5-10 record but even worse they are 2-8 in road games. They have won 2 games in a row now but they haven't really played any of the good teams in this conference during that time and North Carolina is a top 3 team at the moment. Pittsburgh has also lost most of their road games in conference play this year by 10+ points too. I think North Carolina will continue to play well on their home court here and I expect them to get a blowout win here to get back into their groove while Pittsburgh continues to have issues in their road games. I like North Carolina to cover the spread here.

T.M. Prediction: 87-67 North Carolina.
