South Carolina –6.5 (-7.0) over North Carolina
Both teams have played close to the same schedule strength this year so far. Against the schedule South Carolina is outscoring their opponents by 8 point per game while N. Carolina is minus 7 points per game to their opponents. N. Carolina is 2-4 coming into this game and S. Carolina is 5-1 SU and 4-1 against the spread. N. Carolina could be in a “let down situation” coming off their upset win over Miami Florida last week. They could also be looking ahead to Wake Forest next week, while S. Carolina has Vanderbilt nest week, a team they historically handle easily. S. Carolina played within 12 points of powerhouse LSU and beat the high powered offense of Kentucky by 15 points last week. They have two spread wins on the road this year, 16-12 at Georgia as a 4 point dog and 16-28 at LSU as a 17.5 point dog. They are 5-2 as a road favorite in the past 7 situations. South Carolina has an extra 2 days rest this week as their last game was on 10/4 while NC played on 10/6…This was one of our “early beat the line move” plays at –6.5…Some books have moved it to 7 so you might want to consider buying the ½ if you wish…..
South Carolina by 18.0
