Army at Duke picks and predictions

Prediction

Duke 89, Army 53

Moneyline

PASS.

Duke is such a heavy favorite on Friday that the moneyline is off the board. And ignore one if it appears.

Against the spread

LEAN DUKE -33.5 (-110).

While Duke is such a heavy favorite, it displayed its ability in its season opener with a 34-point cover win over Maine that involved multiple players getting involved on both ends of the court. Army had just 3 players in double-digits and struggled against Albany, a far lesser opponent than Duke will prove to be.

Over/Under

BET UNDER 142.5 (-110).

Army went way Under 142.5 in its first game, scoring 67 and limiting Albany to 59 at home. It will not have the same success defensively on Friday and it will struggle to keep up offensively, which will be the reason the Under hits. Duke held Maine to just 62 points in its opener.
