Elon Still Going Through a Rebuild 

Elon is still going through a rebuild and last season they finished with a 13-19 record and they went 6-12 during conference play. Again this season Elon has a young team but they still have some expectations that they are going to be better this season. The best player for this team is TK Simpkins, who averaged 13.8 points per game last season, and the expectation is that he’s going to have a huge season again this year. Nick Dorn also shot 36.6 percent from deep last seaosn andhe’s back. He’s one of the best shooters in the conference, and he’s going to need to have a very big season this year. 

North Carolina has Reloaded

North Carolina finished last season with a 29-8 record overall and they have reloaded for this season. Armando Barcot is finally off the squad, but this team is still veteran led. That starts with RJ Davis who is going to be the best player on this squad. Center Jalen Washington has had a long journey, including with injuries, but he’s healthy and has high expectations for this season. Seth Trimble decided to enter the transfer portal after last season ended, but changed his mind, and he’s going to be a huge factor in this game. The best case scenario for this game is that North Carolina gets plenty of playing time for some of the younger guys. 

Why the Tar Heels Will Beat Elon

  • North Carolina has won each of its last 15 night games against non-Conference opponents at Dean E. Smith Center.
  • Elon has lost four of its last five games.
  • Elon has lost the first half in 11 of its last 12 night games.

Elon vs North Carolina Prediction

Elon just isn’t vey talented, there is no other way to put it, and this game is going to get out of hand early. North Carolina led by RJ Davis is an elite offensive team and they are going to have no issue running up the score here. North Carolina is going to get close to the 100 point mark, and it’s going to be The Tar Heels that end up cruising to the victory. Back North Carolina against the spread.
