NO PLAYS ON MIA, ST JOHNS, MIZZOU....
MIA CONCERNS WITH THEM COMING OFF A BIG WIN OVER WAKE AND ITS HARD TO SAY HOW VT WILL RESPOND COMING OFF THE UNC GAME.
HATE BETTING ON NEUTRAL SITE GAMES AT THIS POINT IN THE SEASON AS ST JOHNS HAS BECOME A NO PLAY.
AS FOR MIZZOU REALLY HAVE TO SEE WHAT THIS TEAM CAN DO AWAY FROM HOME. JUST TOO MANY QUESTIONS.
I stay away from CUSE games unless im getting a complete team to bet against them with. I have had serious problems betting on or against CUSE the last 4 years...
NO PLAY ON UNC THIS SUMS IT UP
Ball security: Against Virginia Tech, Carolina had 18 turnovers but 12 of those came in the first half. The 22.5% loss of ball was Carolina's highest percentage since 22.6% against Ohio State in the fourth game of the year and the third-highest of the season. Fortunately for Carolina, Virginia Tech could only turn those 18 turnovers into six scores (13 points), missing seven baskets and turning it back over four times. And that has been the difference for Carolina this season - in four losses, opponents have converted 53% of Carolina's turnovers into points. In Carolina's 12 wins, opponents have scored on just 32.5% of Carolina's turnovers. Carolina has also been able to follow up a turnover with a forced turnover about 20% of the time in their 12 wins and 12% in losses. Opponents are averaging 20.8 points off of 16 Carolina turnovers in the Tar Heels' four losses compared to 11.8 points on 16.4 turnovers in 12 wins. Clemson, which thrives on forcing turnovers, has had a similar problem. Clemson has turned 19.5 opponent turnovers into 24.2 points in its 13 wins, but forced just 16.9 turnovers in three losses and converted those into just 14.7 points. In 13 wins, opponents are scoring 9.4 points on 15.2 Clemson turnovers compared to 17.7 points on 16 Clemson turnovers in three Tigers' losses.
Carolina has had some particularly bad stretches against Kentucky, Texas and College of Charleston that were characterized by high numbers of turnovers. In those three stretches, which combined totaled nearly a half of basketball (19 minutes, 54 seconds), Carolina was outscored 60-15 and had 40% loss of ball (15 turnovers in 39 possessions). So it's no coincidence that opponents scored 20 points off turnovers and 12 fastbreak points in that span compared to 41 points off turnovers and 32 fastbreak points in the other 105 minutes of those games. Carolina got away from its game and managed just five points off turnovers and two fastbreak points in that span compared to 44 points off turnovers and 22 fastbreak points the rest of those games. Carolina can't have stretches like that when it gets out of what it wants to do and turns it over excessively to win on the road.
I CANT COME TO OTHER SIDE ON THIS ONE EITHER AS UNC HAS FLAT OUT OWNED THESE TIGERS. DOES CLEM RESPOND OR DO THEY KEEP ROLLING BACKWARDS? HARD TO SAY BUT I AM NOT GOING TO GET STUCK WITH MY BOYS TURNING THE BALL OVER IN A KEY POSSESION ONLY TO LOSE BY 4.
