March Madness Betting On North Carolina at Sports Gambling

March Madness betting handicappers will once again see the North Carolina Tar Heels posted on the March Madness odds board for Final Four action.  North Carolina was the top seed in the Southern Regional and will face the upstart Villanova Wildcats in their March Madness betting matchup to start the Final Four.

The Tar Heels opened as a 7.5-point chalk on the March Madness odds board for their game against ‘Nova.

North Carolina has been one of the most dominant teams in March Madness betting action this season as they are a perfect 4-0 against the spread in the “Big Dance” with March Madness betting wins against Radford, LSU, Gonzaga and Oklahoma.

North Carolina has shown a lot of March Madness betting depth during the tournament and has received help from numerous sources along the way.  Tyler Hansbrough is North Carolina’s main offensive weapon.

Hansbrough has had a strong tournament and is UNC’s leading scorer for the season with an average of 20.9 points per game.  Hansbrough is also a strong “Windex Man” as he has cleaned the glass well this year with an average of 8.1 rebounds per game.

North Carolina has always been one of the biggest “name brands” in March Madness betting and that has often served to hurt their overall board value.

So far that has not been the case but keep in mind that UNC was just 15-19 overall against the spread this season and that they will be facing a dangerous March Madness betting opponent in Villanova.

Another significant March Madness betting concern regarding North Carolina is their defense, which ranked a poor 286th overall in the nation this year.  While the Tar Heels defense has improved in the “Big Dance” the question remains whether they can continue to get away with turning it on and off the deeper they go into the tourney.

North Carolina’s offense, on the other hand, is a powerful weapon and ranked 2nd in all the land.
