Kansas is a national contender and they are at home in their opening game. Dickinson is back in the lineup and will pose a problem for North Carolina who looked bad in their first game and will struggle to guard Dickinson. This is a bad matchup for the Tar Heels this early who are trying to gel and find their identity. The last time out, Kansas won 72-69. North Carolina is 2-7 ATS in their last 9 games when playing as the underdog. Kansas are 4-2 ATS in their last 6 games when playing as the favorite but Kansas should win and cover.

Best bet: lay the points with Kansas.
