The Citadel @ North Carolina

Current Records: The Citadel 5-4; North Carolina 6-4

What to Know

The North Carolina Tar Heels will play host again and welcome the The Citadel Bulldogs to Dean E. Smith Center, where tip-off is scheduled for 7 p.m. ET Tuesday. The Tar Heels will be strutting in after a victory while The Citadel will be stumbling in from a defeat.

The Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets typically have all the answers at home, but this past Saturday UNC proved too difficult a challenge. UNC took down Georgia Tech 75-59. UNC can attribute much of their success to forward Armando Bacot, who dropped a double-double on 21 points and 13 rebounds, and guard RJ Davis, who posted a double-double on 22 points and ten boards. That makes it three consecutive games in which Bacot has had at least ten rebounds.

Meanwhile, the Bulldogs were expected to have a tough go of it last week, and that's exactly how things played out. They suffered a grim 79-57 defeat to the College of Charleston Cougars.

The Tar Heels are the favorite in this one, with an expected 25.5-point margin of victory. Those who got lucky with them against the spread this past Saturday might want to hold off on placing bets this time since the squad has yet to string together back-to-back wins against the spread.

UNC's win brought them up to 6-4 while The Citadel's loss pulled them down to 5-4. UNC is 4-1 after wins this year, and The Citadel is 3-0 after losses.
