The North Carolina Tar Heels have the offensive talent to win this game and are probably the more talented team on paper. However, UNC has underachieved all season long and doesn’t play a lick of defense. The Wake Forest Demon Deacons have done nothing but win games this season, are competing for a playoff spot, and still gets disrespected by oddsmakers. Wait till Wake Forest players see this line, the motivation should be through the roof. Give me the free points.
