Baylor vs North Carolina Prediction | March Madness Picks and Bracketology

Baylor was dominant in their First Round game against Norfolk State. Entering the tournament, many had questions about Baylor due to their key injuries. However, they put together one of the most impressive performances on Thursday.

North Carolina was also impressive against Marquette. At their best, this Tar Heel squad can beat absolutely anyone. They have the talent to compete with anyone. This was evident in the First Round, but they will experience some adversity against Baylor. How will North Carolina respond when they get knocked down for the first time?

I think Baylor’s consistency will be enough to get the win, but that’s certainly not the best bet. Our college basketball pick for this game will be taking the over.

Our college basketball betting Baylor vs North Carolina prediction tonight will be the point total going OVER at BetUS. 

For what it’s worth, the ESPN Matchup Predictor gives Baylor a 80.5% chance to win.
