i think duke against the spread versus wake forest means nothing because wake forest has never been this good in that whole span of time

Well thats true, but Duke is uh Duke. (hate going against those guys)

Wake is for real this year.....no doubt!

I wouldn't rely too heavily on trends, Hawk...Since 1997 is almost irrelevant, and even trends over the last 3 seasons doesn't deserve much merit.

Instead, look at how each team has been doing the past few games, and be a little more weary of big spreads--after all, if favorites always won, gambling would be the easiest way to make money in the world.
