with nelson taking to the rack i like the dukies because of their perimeter shooting! look for paulus to get back on track! i like the dukies because of their young explosive squad and their new top 5 ranking! va tech plays tough but duke comes up with an impressive 7-10 point win!

Thinking another Duke first half spread for me whenever my book gives me a line. They have killed that this year. Will have to make an official pick when I get off work later today.

New comer to the forum but this line seems like a trap....Nelson being out the DUkies should roll in this game.
 
I am going to consider being the sucker.

'nother easy game to 'cap for my side. Duke is after some payback after we upset them & danced on their homecourt last year. Duke is much better defensively away from home (try 50 allowed on for size). We are sans our best FrontCourt baller (the A-train, Allen). We are cold form downtown of late. & we get no whistle love for Allen's official elbow last game vs. Gah.Tech, ergo I expect Duke at the FT a lot.

Duke SU.
Duke SU 1st half.
Duke SU 1st 10 mins.

GLA!

liking Duke at the half... I looked up VTech's splits for the last few games and they tend to come out flat and get beat (by spread and otherwise) in the first half almost as consistently as Duke wins first halves.  Good call guys
 
Duke -4.5 half

I HATE DUKE!
 
But I hate losing money more, duke comes out on fire all the time...
 
Duke first half
 
Does anyone else think the ACC is so top heavy its sickening?  Try covering road chalk like this in the Big East!  Forget about it.

Va Tech usually plays Duke close, but this is a completely different Duke team.  They come out firing on all cylinders tonight.  Duke wins in blowout fashion tonight.  Allen for Va Tech is serving suspension for bumping official which takes away an inside presence for them, and allows a lot of penetration and kick outs.  Take Duke in a rout tonight.
