Take #872 Wake Forest Over UNC
(NCAAB) Wake Forest vs. North Carolina,
Point Spread: 8.50 | -117.00 Wake Forest (Away)
Result: Loss
A big opportunity awaits both Wake Forest and No. 4 North Carolina when the Atlantic Coast Conference rivals meet Monday night in Chapel Hill, N.C. North Carolina (15-3, 7-0 ACC) will try to move to 8-0 in conference play for the first time since 2015-16 and solidify its spot atop the league standings. The Tar Heels have won eight games in a row. "I'm proud of how our team has reacted and responded," North Carolina coach Hubert Davis said. "Everybody is feeling more comfortable." Wake Forest (13-5, 5-2) covets a notable result despite consistent success since Thanksgiving. The Demon Deacons have lost their last two road games. Wake Forest actually won the last contest head to head last year, but despite UNC's revenge, we think this is a spot that Wake can hang tough as UNC has won 8 in a row, and this might be the spot they have a let-down.
