The Final Four tips off on Saturday and the nightcap in Houston features
a pair of college bluebloods. The Syracuse Orange (+750 to win
championship) have surprised many to get to this point as a No. 10 – the
first ever to make it to the Final Four. The North Carolina Tar Heels
(+105 favorites to win championship) handled their business as the top
seed in their region.
Oddsmakers opened this line up with the Tar Heels favored by 9 points
and the total at 146. The point-spread has stayed pretty steady but the
total has been bet down to 144.5 with the defense Syracuse has been
playing.

The Orange (23-13 SU, 20-15 ATS) downed top-seeded Virginia 68-62 to
reach their sixth Final Four and their first since 2013. Malachi
Richardson netted 23 points for Syracuse, who were down by as many as 16
in the second half, but they fought back and rode their 2-3 zone
defense all the way to Houston. Syracuse has now allowed 55.7 points in
the NCAA Tournament.
The Tar Heels (32-6 SU, 19-18-1 ATS) powered past Notre Dame with an
88-74 win as Brice Johnson had his third double-double in a row with 25
points and 12 rebounds. North Carolina shot a ridiculous 61.5% from the
field and have averaged 89.2 points during the Tournament so far.
North Carolina has won three of their last five meetings with Syracuse, including both in ACC play this season.
