This game is really going to have a lot to do with Berry plays. The Heels seem to be in some sort of fog with out him and easily could’ve lost to both Davidson and Tennessee at home. Those are both games the Heels should have easily won. Even if Berry plays, the question of how effective he will be will also be in consideration.

Final Score: 98-90 Kentucky over UNC. This is the first time this season I have picked the Heels to lose in a prediction. Carolina does have the experience, though Kentucky probably has the more talented squad. With Berry probably not 100 percent if he does play, the Wildcats will be favored to take home the win.
