Duke Blue Devils #549 over North Carolina Tar Heels: Early money today has all come in on N.Car. Duke starts 4 freshmen yes they are talented but this will be their 1st go around on the road in this vicious rivalry. That will not deter me from betting Duke. Duke is 7-3 in conf play N.Car is 6-5. The market is down on Duke given their road loss Sat to St. Johns. That loss does not look as bad as it did given St. Johns just went in and beat #1 Vill on the road. Secondly I see that game as a wake up call for Duke. N.Car is a good team not a great team. N.Car does not pressure the ball or create many turnovers. This will help the young players on Duke. Secondly N.Car does not defend the 3 point line well. Duke is very good at draining 3’s. This figures to be a fast paced high scoring game going right down to final possession with the points offered a decent cushion giving us the value.
