AZMango model

No betting line has been posted for this game yet. Sportsbooks post lines for many women's college games only on game day, and smaller-conference games often get none at all. Books also take a line down for a while when a key player's status is unclear. We check ESPN's lines before each day's games and add the line as soon as there is one.

Advantages Why North Carolina can win

  1. Simulation: North Carolina win 2,855 of 5,000 simulated games.
  2. Three-point shooting: North Carolina 29th (35.1%), Oklahoma 250th (29.0%) of 364.
  3. Strength: North Carolina rank 12th of 364 in strength of schedule (+2.7).
  4. Strength: North Carolina rank 13th of 364 in shooting allowed (opponent eFG%) (41.2%).
  5. Strength: North Carolina rank 16th of 364 in defense, points allowed per 100 possessions (82.6).
  6. Team matchup: no unit-against-unit mismatch clearly favors North Carolina. The nearest thing to one: their shooting efficiency (22nd of 364) meets the Oklahoma shooting defense (14th), close to even, so this is more about execution than one area to exploit.
  7. Star matchup: no key position favors North Carolina, so they need their depth to beat the other side's stars, with Nyla Harris (11.4 pts, 6.9 reb, 0.9 ast, Game Score 10.1) leading the way.

Disadvantages Why North Carolina may not

  1. Upset odds: Oklahoma win 2,145 of 5,000 simulations (43%). A 57% pick still loses about 4 times in 10.
  2. Season-long ratings: betting lines have rated Oklahoma about 1.0 points stronger over recent games.
  3. Range of outcomes: in the worst 10% of simulations North Carolina lose by 14 or more.
  4. Getting to the line (free throws per shot): Oklahoma 150th (0.21), North Carolina 342nd (0.16) of 364.
  5. Weak spot: North Carolina rank 342nd of 364 in getting to the line (free throws per shot) (0.16).
  6. Team matchup: a strength North Carolina may not get to use. Their shooting efficiency (22nd of 364) meets the Oklahoma shooting defense (14th), one of the better units at stopping it, which can take away their plan to get clean looks against a defense that gives them up.
  7. Star matchup: Best player against best player, Raegan Beers (Oklahoma: 15.8 pts, 10.4 reb, 2.2 ast, Game Score 14.6) has the edge on Nyla Harris (North Carolina: 11.4 pts, 6.9 reb, 0.9 ast, Game Score 10.1); at guard, Aaliyah Chavez (Oklahoma: 18.4 pts, 3.8 reb, 4.2 ast, Game Score 11.5) has the edge on Indya Nivar (North Carolina: 10.6 pts, 5.2 reb, 3.7 ast, Game Score 9.3).
