    Waiting on the Clemson-Duke line...

    Why do books do this? Early game and still no number up yet. Trying to get a jump on the opener and get to bed.

    I think it comes at Duke -8. If it opens at -7.5, I'll take it. On my line I have it Duke -11.

    The million dollar question is:

    Does Duke give a fukk?

    I think Coach K will have them give their best effort. I mean, it is the ACC tournament. Time to make run into the big dance.

    Duke doesn't need the game, so if I were to handicap this and the numbers told me to take Duke ...I would walk away. But if the numbers told me to take Clemson, I would pound it.

    I dont agree that Duke doesnt need the game.. this is a duke team that had much higher expectations that because of suspensions, injuries, and coach K surgery hasnt really lived up to.. if they win the ACC tourny they lock up a #2 potentially instead of a 3/4 ..

    However i agree with you 100% that you do what the numbers tell you to do

    They are waiting on the status of Clemson guard Avry Holmes who has a bad ankle. He maybe makes a difference of a point on the line, but , from what I understand that is what they are waiting on.

    For the bragging right (Duke/UNC), since they did not win the regular season title, I would think they want to win the Tournament title.

    Basketball is played with an orange ball.

    Rebounds are important, but most points win.

    Sometimes the underdog can upset the favorite.
