Clarion Ledger reporter Sam Hutchens' prediction: Ole Miss: 72, North Carolina 66
On Selection Sunday, North Carolina was just 1-12 in Quad 1 wins. The Rebels qualify as a Quadrant 1 opponent. Despite barely sneaking into the bracket, the Tar Heels are always a candidate to make a run. Ole Miss' senior-heavy lineup should be poised enough to avoid an upset.
