No. 1 North Carolina vs No. 5 Indiana: The big question for Indiana will be health with several guys banged up entering this one. The other question is will we get a focused effort from UNC for all 40 minutes? The best game of the day is the last one. The winner of the Marcus Paige vs. Yogi Ferrell matchup goes on to the Elite Eight. Prediction: UNC, 80-75 (Athlon Sports)
