The Jayhawks are 7-2 ATS in their last nine games overall and 10-3 ATS after a win. Kansas is 3-5 ATS in its last eight NCAA Tournament games.
North Carolina is 5-0 ATS in their last five neutral-site games and 5-0 ATS as a favourite. The Tar Heels are 8-1 ATS in their last nine games after a win.
North Carolina has been fantastic all tournament. The Tar Heels’ win over Duke on Saturday was historic, and they enter this game on a high note. But I doubt North Carolina can keep up a cover speed late in the game. What a great game!
