Analysis
At 12 Noon, on Saturday, our selection is on the North Carolina Tar Heels + the points over Virginia. North Carolina has lost four straight games, and is 0-5 ATS its last 5 FBS games. Two weeks ago, the Tar Heels fell at home to Georgia Tech, 41-34, as a 3.5 point dog. They'll travel to Charlottesville to face a Cavaliers squad on Saturday afternoon. And UVa has covered its last four games. The knee-jerk reaction might be to play on the red-hot Cavaliers, and against the ice-cold Tar Heels. However, consider that NCAA teams on a 4-game (or better) ATS losing streak have cashed 56% since 1980 vs. foes on a 4-game (or better). Virginia is a wallet-busting 34-65-4 ATS as a single-digit favorite against .400 (or better) foes. Take the Tar Heels. Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.
