(NCAAB) North Carolina vs. Kansas, 04/04/2022 9:20 PM, Score: 69 - 72
Total: 153.00 | -110.00 Over
Result: Loss
T.M. Selection: UNC/Kansas OVER.

I am on the over in the UNC vs Kansas game on Monday. UNC has looked good in this tournament so far, knocking off some really good opposing teams this year and they have been putting up a ton of points in the process. They have won 5 games in a row in this tournament and they have knocked off the 2nd seeded Duke, 4th seeded UCLA, and 1st seeded Baylor. I think they are going to continue on their hot streak here in the finals and I expect their offense to be on point like it has been throughout the entire tournament. They have put up 90+ points 2 times in their 5 games, 1 of those times was against the 1st seeded Baylor, and they just put up 80+ points in their most recent game against Duke in the final four. They have been able to hold down the offenses of the lower seeded teams in their games, keeping a few of them at low scores, but they struggled on the defensive end in their 2 games against the 2nd seeded and 1st seeded teams they faced. I think UNC is also going to struggle to keep Kansas off the board here and they are going to have to resort to their offense to keep up with Kansas in this game. Kansas has looked really good on defense in their games lately and they just held Villanova to 65 points in their most recent game but Kansas still managed to put up 80+ points in that game. As a 1st seeded team, Kansas hasn't had to face a lot of really good teams on their journey to this game and UNC is probably the best team they will have faced, other than Villanova. Villanova was a very defensive team though and UNC is the opposite focusing more on their offense in games and putting up a ton of points in those games. I think Kansas is going to struggle on the defensive end here to keep UNC off the board and I expect them to put up more offense to keep UNC down in this game. Kansas has also been really hot from the 3 lately and I think that is going to help surge them into a bigger lead which will force UNC to put up more offense to make a comeback. I like the over in this game.

T.M. Prediction: 85-79 Kansas.
