Michigan State beat North Carolina last November 94-91 in overtime as a 5-point underdog with the game going over the total of 158. This year, both teams are 6-0, with North Carolina scoring big wins over Kansas and St Bonaventure, and Michigan State beating Arkansas and Kentucky. North Carolina has one returning starter, and Michigan State has two returning starters and two key rotation players. But the one thing I respect most this early in the season is having a coach who gets an edge with the referees, and that's Tom Izzo. You watch a couple of times in this game when he complains to the ref, he gets a call right away. The coach matters when the kids don't know how to win yet.
