Wofford at Duke picks and predictions

Prediction

Duke 87, Troy 60

Moneyline

PASS.

There’s no way anyone should consider betting Duke (-10000) at this price. That’s risking $100 to win a $1 — not a wise sports gambling strategy. However, when looking at the spread, things get more enticing.

Against the spread

BET DUKE -25.5 (-115).

This will be the third meeting between Duke and Wofford. The Blue Devils won the previous 2 matchups, both at home — in 2014 and 2019 — and by 29 points each.

Coming off their first loss of the season, Duke is primed to respond decisively. The Blue Devils’ 2 victories this season were by 42 and 36 points, covering spreads of 33.5 and 32, respectively. Flagg, coming off an impressive showing against Kentucky, is set to shine against Wofford’s subpar defense.

The Terriers, 0-2 ATS against Division I teams, also lost to Lipscomb by 9. Duke, 2-0 ATS all-time vs. Wofford, should easily cover this spread.

Over/Under

BET UNDER 147.5 (-105).

This matchup should finish similar to the previous 2 meetings where Duke averaged 85 points and Wofford 56. Wofford ranks 358th in possessions per game (63.1) and has yet to face a team of Duke’s caliber. The Terriers have gone Under in both of their D-I games this season, failing to score 70 points and likely staying under 60 here. Duke ranks 129th in possessions per game (74.4) and won’t push the tempo, favoring the UNDER (147.5) in this contest.
