North Carolina Tar Heels 18-8 (8-5 ACC) Vs. North Carolina State Wolfpack 19-7 (8-5 ACC)
It’s always interesting when these two rivals square off. UNC has owned NC State in recent history and are favored in this one by 5.5 points. This is one of the last chances of the season for UNC to add a signature win to their resume before the NCAA Tournament.
