| The No. 11 Marquette Golden Eagles Put the No.2 North Carolina Tar Heels On Upset Alert |
BetPhoenix is the premier online sportsbook for betting on college basketball. BetPhoenix covers every tournament to include the CIT, NIT, and March Madness. The Tar Heels must keep getting the ball inside to Tyler Zeller and John Henson to open up things for freshman F Harrison Barnes to drive or shoot perimeter jumpers. They also must take care of the basketball against a Marquette defense that likes to turn the other team’s mistakes into quick points. The Tar Heels had only nine turnovers in the three-point win over Washington but had twice that number in the opener against Long Island. The Tar Heels must find someone to contain Marquette G Darius Johnson-Odom, who showed an ability to drive for points or shoot the three in the win over Syracuse (17 points on 7-for-15 shooting, 3 of 7 on treys). G/F Jimmy Butler also can hit the three on occasion, but he averages under two attempts per game. F Harrison Barnes, who is turning into North Carolina’s most reliable three-point threat, could be a matchup problem for the Golden Eagles. The Golden Eagles like to get points off their defense. They force their opponents into two turnovers more a game than they commit. The Tar Heels look to have an advantage inside with 7-0 F Tyler Zeller and 6-10 John Henson. Henson could take away Marquette’s inside game with his shot-blocking ability (10 in two tournament games). The Golden Eagles are 25-12-1 ATS in their last 38 games against a team with a winning record and get the upset against the Tar Heels to advance to the Elite Eight. Play on Marquette
