Posted Mar 28, 2024
Alabama has one of the best offenses in college basketball and one of the worst defenses, No. 4 and No. 101. UNC has the 16th best offense and No. 6 defense. The Crimson Tide will try to contain R.J. Davis and Armando Bacot, while the Tar Heels must do the same with Mark Sears, who averages 21.5 ppg and shoots 44 percent from 3-point range. (Chapelboro.com)
