North Carolina will take on San Diego State in the First Four of the 2025 men's NCAA Tournament on Tuesday, with both playing for a spot in the round of 64.
The Tar Heels, who are seeded 11th, its lowest since the seeding system began in 1979, are 22-13 this season, while the Aztecs, also seeded No. 11, are 21-9 in this campaign.
This will be the third meeting between both teams, with UNC winning both of the previous meetings, though their last encounter was in 1990, which featured current coach Hubert Davis, who scored 16 points.
The winner of this South Region matchup will face No. 6 seed Ole Miss on Friday at 4 p.m. in Milwaukee, Wisconsin.
Trending
North Carolina finished the season well, losing only twice, both against Duke in their last 10 games, including in the ACC semifinals.
Meanwhile, San Diego struggled in recent weeks, losing three of its last six games, including a loss to Boise State in the quarter-final of the Mountain West Tournament.
UNC vs San Diego State Prediction
North Carolina’s inclusion in March Madness was a bit controversial, as industry experts predicted them to miss out due to their underwhelming record against high-ranked opposition.
However, they appear to have improved as the season progressed, with their performance in the loss against Duke in the ACC Tournament showing that.
UNC have proven that they can deliver offensively and this might make the difference against San Diego, who are defensively solid but quite average in attack.
Prediction: UNC 72 vs 65 San Diego State
