Ohio State is -5.5 over Duke on Tuesday

[BernardMadoff]

Always been a fan of Duke, but hope OSU stomp the ish out of them tonight, Duke aint good really, Rivers aint all that as Ive told people and he's not too heady. Curry and Dawkins shoot very well, but somehow it seems their roles have diminished from last year, also Rivers plays entirely too many minutes, not sure what Coach K is thinking. Even Dukies dont have enough faith in this line and it wont move much.

[BernardMadoff]

I'm with most of the people on this thread-- Ohio St. SU but not gonna lay the 5.5. If Coach K can come up with the game plan to attack inside and get a few calls on Sullinger it's a different ball game. But Duke did not see anything close to a Sullinger in Maui or any other game this season and lack a true C to match up with him. Gonna be fun to watch

They saw enough Robinson, whom none of them could stop. No matter how good Sullinger is, and he is darn good, he's still undersized, still Duke's bigs arnt that athletic anyway, with the big one they got shooting 3's, that will spread the floor more for them and they will definitely go at Sullinger early and often to get him in foul trouble.

OSU or pass, if you take Duke your taking a big risk and good luck.

[onacloud]

[ipickwinners]

im a UNC fan and obviously HATE duke...but seeing as 99% of u guys r on OSU...im putting $ on duke....got em at +6

[Big Bear]

Duke does not shoot free throws as well this year do they?

[thebestthereis]

make sure if you have duke you understand fully that this game is not being played in maui and it is a true road game and a true home game. they cannot make the correct line in this game where it should be around 10.

Plus Ohio State will kill Duke on the boards, so

yeah I haven't seen anything to date from the Plumlee's etc that suggests they can handle Sullinger. They sure don't look like NBA material to me.

Might try Duke

Ohio State has to play zone or they have zero shot of winning

They better extend it and rotate or they run the run risk of the bombers going crazy. Personally I'd give Duke all they wanted inside and defend the perimeter. I agree with an earlier poster that it will be interesting to see how the OSU guards defend. Plus you always have the backdoor with Duke for a couple desperation 3's late.

Not so far this season.

[thetrinity]

only thing that scares me a little is that dukes a good backdoor team as someone else already said, but ohio sts the play.

[lonegambler]

y not just take ohio st ml

why do they have to play zone?
doesnt ohio state want to turn this into a track meet and run up and down the floor? I do think ohio needs to put another big man down low to play defense so sully doesnt rack up fouls.

the most dangerous player for duke is kelly i think

[k13]

-7 now

public all over duke huge here.

osu ml probably best play.

[jkilla990]

so i liked ohio st but now the line is 7 and some places 7.5, where do you guys draw the line on ohio st, so at what point do you just take duke?
