Virginia vs. North Carolina odds, preview, and picks

Virginia (1-5) faces off against North Carolina (6-0), a game where they are substantial underdogs.

While North Carolina is locked in a battle with Florida State as the class of the ACC, Virginia is virtually in the cellar. Having won one game over non-conference opponent William & Mary, the Cavaliers are having a season to forget.

Things are going to get much tougher as they travel to Chapel Hill to tangle with the undefeated Tar Heels. Coach Mack Brown’s squad sports at top-10 offense, averaging 501.3 yards per game. North Carolina ranks eighth in the FBS in third-down conversion percentage, finding success on over 50% of attempts.

In Virginia, North Carolina will meet a 70th-ranked defense — one that’s allowed 23 touchdowns to opposing offenses and is surrendering 379.8 points a game. That’s certainly a juicy matchup for quarterback Drake Maye and the Tar Heels, who can move their win streak to seven against the Cavs.

The line is sitting at 23.5 points for the game, with North Carolina heavily favored. The Tar Heels are averaging 37.33 points per game in 2023, while the Virginia defense has allowed an average of 31.83 points to opponents.

This all has the makings of a blowout win for North Carolina at home, and expect the Tar Heels to cover the 23.5-point spread en route to 7-0.
