Oregon Ducks vs North Carolina Tar Heels Predictions 12/28/2022

With shocking defeats to Georgia Tech and NC State, North Carolina wasted a chance to enter the College Football Playoff or at least enter the debate.

Despite being 9-1, the Tar Heels were unable to carry their momentum all the way to victory.

As Clemson led 24-10 at halftime and never looked back, the Tar Heels’ season did not end as they hoped when they were humiliated by the Tigers.

UNC struggled to score, managing only one touchdown in the first half and none at all in the second. Three North Carolina turnovers were caused by the Clemson defense, which also limited UNC to 3.1 yards per run on 36 attempts.

Drake Maye, the quarterback, is in charge of both the ground game (653 rushing yards and 7 rushing TDs) and the passing assault (4,115 passing yards, 35 TDs, and 7 INTs).

North Carolina will rely on Antoine Green (798 receiving yards and 7 touchdowns) to fill in for injured top receiver Josh Downs.

In terms of third down conversion rate (46.5%) and red zone production percentage (79.6%), UNC is ranked 94th and 14th, respectively. 31.0 points and 438.2 total yards, including 161.8 rushing yards and 276.4 passing yards, are given up by the UNC defense per match.

They are rated 92nd in opponent red zone scoring percentage (86.8%) and 90th in opponent third down conversion percentage (41.4%), respectively.

The Oregon Ducks are 6-2 ATS in their last 8 matches.
The Ducks are 9-2 SU in their last 11 matches.
Oregon is 10-4 SU in their last 14 matches played in December.

#15 Oregon Ducks vs North Carolina Tar Heels. The NCAAF pick for this game is the #15 Oregon Ducks.

Even though both teams are without their regular season offensive coordinators and important players, both quarterbacks are still on the field.

The UNC offense’s red zone scoring percentage placed it at just 94th overall. Additionally, the UNC defense will be without a few defensive starters and had a 92nd-ranked opponent red zone scoring percentage.

The Tar Heels are 0-4 ATS in their previous four games at neutral sites, while the Ducks are 6-1 ATS in their last 7 matches following an ATS defeat. The #15 Oregon Ducks will win to a predicted score of 45-31.
