UNC vs. Virginia: 3 factors to predict who will win this top-10 matchup

Posted Feb 11, 2019
North Carolina's defense will have plenty to do with this. Virginia ranks fifth in the country in offensive efficiency, but has struggled a bit lately. UNC's recent seven-game win streak has more to do with scoring than point prevention. If North Carolina can force some live-ball turnovers and late shot-clock heaves early, it could impose its will. The first 10 minutes will be crucial. (NCAA.com)
