The current betting odds have Duke listed as an 8 point underdog in this game according to Draftkings Sportsbook. Duke has been having a great year so far, this is one of their best seasons in a long time and each week they just continue to win games or at least keep them close when they lose, even against teams they were thought to have no chance against. Miami hasn't been having the season they wanted, it started off good with a few wins even though some were very questionable the way they played in the games, but things really started to go downhill after losing to MTSU and then entering the conference schedule right after. Miami has been crumbling as they lost 3 games in a row to some pretty good teams, they finally got a win last week but they played VA Tech who isn't very good and they only won the game by 6 points. Their defense has been their strength this season as they have kept a lot of their games low scoring but Duke has been the kind of team to stick around in their games whether it be with good offense or good defense. This number is just too high for Miami to cover when their offense has struggled at times and Duke has been playing so well. The best way to place a bet here is on Duke to cover the spread in this game.

We knew it was going to be that kind of game where we were just going to have to keep trying to make plays to keep up with them." - Mike Elko after his team’s loss against UNC in their last game.
