North Carolina Tar Heels vs. Wisconsin Badgers: NCAA Tournament Prediction & Preview

Posted Mar 19, 2021
This is one of the toughest matchups to figure out. North Carolina at their best could be a Sweet 16 team, but if they aren't getting rebounds, they can lose in the first round. Wisconsin hasn't shown much down the stretch, though. I don't know if the Badgers can all of a sudden figure things out and win a game like this. Prediction: UNC 70, Wisconsin 64. (Athlon Sports)
