There were a couple of lean years after legendary coach Dean Smith retired but the Tar Heels have climbed back to elite status with Roy Williams leading the charge.  They have lost some key contributors from last year&#8217;s championship team but there is no shortage of talent on the roster There will definitely be some new opportunities to shine now that first round picks Tyler Hansbrough, Ty Lawson and Wayne Ellington are no longer on campus.<\/p>\n<p>2009-2010 marks a bit of a changing of the guard at UNC.  It seems like Hansbrough has been the face of college basketball for the last decade.  For UNC to maintain their high level of performance a talented group of freshmen and sophomores oozing with pro talent will have to come through&#8230;and don&#8217;t forget glue guy Marcus Ginyard, who is coming off injury and is the rare scrappy, physical hustle player on the roster.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Surprising Stat:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The Tar Heels are all about scoring and pace. They were second in the nation in scoring at 89.8 ppg but were 275th in points allowed at 72ppg. You would think that with their superior length and athleticism they would be better at defending.<\/p>\n<p>Even with all that scoring the oddsmakers have a pretty good handle on UNC they were only 21-16 0\/U.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Strengths<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Nobody has more size than the Tar Heels with 5 players listed at 6&#8217;10&#8221; or taller. This is UNC so they aren&#8217;t exactly stiffs either. Many rate their frontcourt the best in America and rebounding should not be an issue even with the graduation of Hansbrough.<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft\" style=\"margin: 1px; border: 3px solid #ffffff;\" src=\"http:\/\/www.bodogaffiliate.com\/resources\/banners\/logos\/square\/250x250\/250x250b-pl-sports.gif\" border=\"0\" alt=\"Sports Betting at the Sportsbook\" width=\"250\" height=\"250\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>Weaknesses<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Roy Williams wants to play fast which requires quality PG play. Last year this team struggled when Lawson was not in the game and Larry Drew III was erratic. If he becomes solid this team has final four potential. If he is good than they have the chance to win it all. Only other weakness could be toughness. They are relying on young talent to replace the physicality of Hansbrough&#8230;will they be willing to punch people in the mouth when it is required.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Post Season<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Absolutely&#8230;Anything less than a sweet sixteen performance will be a massive disappointment. My gut says elite eight where they get beat by a team with a really strong backcourt who can shoot the rock.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Additions<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>John Henson &#8211; a preseason all ACC candidate as a freshman,\u00a0Leslie McDonald &#8211; Will have to replace Ellington&#8217;s shooting, \u00a0David Wear &#8211; 6&#8242; 10 brothers add size and skill, \u00a0Travis Wear &#8211; nobody has more size than UNC, \u00a0\u00a0Dexter Strickland &#8211; possible PG<\/p>\n<p><strong>Subtractions<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Tyler Hansbrough (#1DC), \u00a0Ty Lawson (#1DC),\u00a0Wayne Ellington (#1DC), \u00a0Danny Green (#2DC),\u00a0Bobby Frasor<\/p>\n<p><strong>Key Players<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Ed Davis &#8211; Some think he will be a lottery pick if he comes out next spring.<\/p>\n<p>Tyler Zeller &#8211; Ditto for this 7 footer who will have an expanded role this year.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Regular Season Predictions &#8211; Season Wins<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>28-30<\/p>\n<h3><a href=\"http:\/\/record.bettingpartners.com\/_TcMlrmSOeQxhg6WO2I1rgWNd7ZgqdRLk\/1\/\" rel=\"nofollow\">CLICK HERE TO JOIN BODOG.COM &#8211; ONE OF OUR TOP RATED ONLINE SPORTSBOOKS &#8211; 10% SIGN UP BONUS FOR CBB BETTING ONLINE<\/a><\/h3>\n<p><strong> <\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Quick article by The Wiesguy detailing the University of North Carolina Tar Heels 2009 Season win total odds for over under college basketball betting futures and a season wins prediction\u2026<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":180,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1415],"tags":[18516,18517,18518,18519,10618,12470,18520,12471,18523,12419,14495,18521,18522,18524,18525],"class_list":["post-14439","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-ncaa-basketball","tag-2009-college-basketball-future-lines","tag-2009-north-carolina-season-win-total-odds","tag-college-future-odds","tag-college-over-under-betting","tag-ncaa-basketball-handicapping","tag-north-carolina-odds","tag-north-carolina-odds-to-win-college-title","tag-north-carolina-picks","tag-north-carolina-win-total-lines","tag-overunder-season-win-totals","tag-season-win-total-odds","tag-tar-heels-picks","tag-tar-heels-predictions","tag-tar-heels-wins-2009","tag-unc-predictions-2009"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/14439","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/180"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=14439"}],"version-history":[{"count":11,"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/14439\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":109608,"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/14439\/revisions\/109608"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=14439"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=14439"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=14439"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
