Duke @ Virginia Picks & Props
DUKE vs UVA Picks
NCAAF Picks
Duke’s bottom-tier, explosion-prone pass defense and a possible chase script for Virginia make this yardage number simply too low, playable up to 234.5.
A Virginia passing attack that hasn't been necessarily efficent but explosive should be able to get it's best passcatcher involved at a decent clip against such a bad defense.
Virginia beat Duke, 34-17, in mid-November in what seemed like a must-win game. And that was with the Blue Devils enjoying an interception return for a touchdown in the fourth quarter. This matchup favors the Cavaliers, certainly by more than 3.5 points. Their passing game alone exposes too many holes in Duke's defense.
Harris dominated this matchup just a few weeks ago, catching eight passes for 161 yards and a score in Week 12. He’s ready for another big game against a defense checking in at 113th in coverage grade (per PFF) and 131st in EPA per pass allowed.
