Preview & Prediction: #4 UNC vs #5 Arkansas

Posted Mar 21, 2015
Arkansas plays at virtually the same tempo as the Tar Heels, around 70 possessions per game. The average offensive possession for both teams lasts about 15 seconds so this is expected to an up and down affair. This will be a tough game for the Tar Heels but it is winnable if UNC plays at a high level. If not, it could be a third straight Round of 32 exit. Prediction: UNC 85, Arkansas 79 (Tar Heel Blog)
