10* UNC +1.5 This is the ACC opener and played with only a few people in the stands at NCSU. Roy Williams, coach of the Tar Heels has done well vs. the Wolfpack (34-4). UNC beat them twice last year in a 14-19 year and Garrison Brooks played well in both games. Brooks is the preseason Player of the Year and been a disappointment so far. He is a senior and should step up. Bacot and Sharp are solid inside. The freshmen guards are STRUGGLING for UNC and that is why you see the Tar Heels get off to slow starts as they have fallen down 10+ in most games. The Tar Heels are deep as we saw Platek and Kerwin Walton make key 3's vs. Kentucky. Take UNC +1.5 in a close game.

10* ND -4 One key to this game is senior QB Ian Book for Notre Dame can pass and run and that helped the Irish beat Clemson. The UNC defense is young and needs an edge rusher as well as a big/strong tackle inside to slow down the running attack. Mack Brown still needs more recruits on defense. UNC QB Sam Howell is a great passer but slow and that hurts his efforts to run. OC Luongo has been unsteady in some calls on offense (too many laterals/backward passes that are fumbles if not caught). This should be a great game but I see ND winning by 7 or more as UNC seems to make key mistakes this year (fumbles and penalties).
