    Duke -5, Under 139

    The line -5 scares me. Duke will win the game. But Baylor hasn't lost a game all season by more than 8 points. They know how to fight. Both teams can score the basketball. But I see this being a grind-it-out, defensive oriented game, with long possesions that eat most of the clock. Not betting this for sure, might take Duke ML parlayed with the Under, or the under for the first half.

    If Baylor plays that zone, I think Duke will drain a high percentage of outside shots. I also see Baylor scoring at will too, though, since they've got shooters that can create their own shots and pop it from anywhere on the floor.

    I was thinking the same thing when I bet St. Mary's vs Baylor -5 (St. Mary's hasn't lost a game all season by more than 8 points)....We know how that thought turned out.

    6pts... 7pts... 8pts... all are very close. it could be a very tight game until the last minute, and depending on situation you could see lead "jump" an additional 4-6pts.

    duke did not play well in their last game vs purdue, be careful. i feel if the jersey didn't say duke i don't think the line would be 5. i feel this is a pick em game. good luck!

    No upset here. I think that Duke will roll over Baylor.

    Yup. Within 5 pts. seems reasonable until Baylor starts fouling at the end.

    Duke will probably have a solid game, just don't know about the 5.

    Baylor +5. How bad is Purdue? Duke couldn't throw the ball in the ocean in the first half of their game and yet the Blue Devils led at the half. They have had the easiest road in the playoffs (as usual) and finally play a real team. Baylor absolutely dismantled the darlings of the tournament, St Mary's, and are probably playing the best ball of those still in.
