Note: I’ve decided to use the KenPom Top 25 just because I find it much more accurate than the AP, plus, its updated daily

These picks will be updated every day.

#6Gonzaga (9-1) @ #7North Carolina (7-2) – 7 PM ET, ESPN2

One of the final few blockbuster matchups of nonconference play will come Saturday night in a rematch of the 2017 National Championship. Gonzaga travels to the Dean to talk on a UNC team that has fallen a little short of expectations so far, coming in 3rd place at the Las Vegas Invitational over Thanksgiving, and dropping a road game against Michigan by 17, although that one is a little more understandable given that the Wolverines rank 2nd in my weekly power rankings on twitter (@crazysportdude). This will start a tough stretch for the Tar Heels as they will take on four top 100 teams in a row before jumping into ACC play. Gonzaga, on the other hand, has been one of the most inconsistent teams I’ve seen this year, even before the loss to Tennessee, I had them 5th in my power rankings. On the one hand, they dominated Duke for 30 minutes, but on the other, they were down double digits to Creighton on the road, needed a buzzer beater to beat Washington, and had a game with #104 Illinois go to the final minutes in Maui. I’d probably pick them on a neutral, but the Bulldogs are just way too inconsistent for me to have confidence that they will go to Chapel Hill and walk away with a victory. Give me North Carolina in a high scoring, close game.
