The Road to the National Championship who has the edge.
Hello Everybody, The NCAA National Championship is about 24 hours away and I am pumped up for it. The North Carolina Tar Heels And the Gonzaga Bulldogs are going to Faceoff on Monday night for all the Marbles and how did they get here.
Well the Roads are different for both teams. North Carolina had to survive Oregon with a 77-76 victory. As for Gonzaga they had to survive a fairly tough South Carolina team to get to where they are at.
This is North Carolina's 2nd consecutive trip to the National title game. They lost to Villanova 77-74 last year after Kris Jenkins broke UNC's heart one year ago.
As for Gonzaga this is their first ever trip to the National Championship game. Gonzaga had only one loss all season to BYU back towards the end of the season. So the Bulldogs have a lot to prove on the Big Stage and they have the chance of a lifetime to do so on Monday Night.
So here's the $64.000 question, who has the edge. Gonzaga has the best rebounding team in the country and as for North Carolina they have one of the best Scorers In the Country in Joel Berry II. As for the coaches this is Roy Williams 9th trip to the National Championship Game. And as for Gonzaga Mark Few this is his First time playing for the Biggest Prize in College Basketball. The National Championship.
According to the Basketball Power index Gonzaga has a 59% chance of winning the game. But North Carolina is a One-Point Favorite going into the Big Game on Monday Night.
But despite all of the stats that we have had all tournament long and this national championship game has 2 Number one seeds facing off again. I have to go with the experience
North Carolina wins it 80-77.
