Anyone else liking the Blue Devils -5.5 in this one? They have really turned it around since losing 4 in a row and I think they will take care of business tomorrow at home... I believe it is Senior Night tomorrow in Durham and even though they don't really have any marquee seniors on the team, I think they will come strong! Anyone else like Duke tomorrow?
I like Maryland in this spot. As well as Duke has been playing lately, the Terps might be playing even better ball the last few weeks. Their athleticism was a huge problem for Duke the last time they played, and I just don't think this is a good matchup for Duke, even playing at home. Personally, I'm gonna wait until close to gametime with the hope that this line will grow to 6-6.5.
I never bet against Duke at home with revenge. NEVER. Even though Maryland is playing better than anyone else in the conference right now, too many things hurt them here to make a play on the dog a good idea. Just a few:
1. The Coach K with revenge thing.
2. Senior Night
3. Maryland's emotional comeback win over UNC on the Terps' Senior Night, highlighted by Gary Williams crying in the postgame.
Coming from UM, nothing means more than beating Duke, would matter if it was the only win of the season. I won't be betting the game, one rule I have is never betting my home team. Gl whatever way you play this one, GO TERPS!
