Why Duke can cover
Duke has only lost one game by double digits this season, which came in a 24-14 final at Georgia Tech at the beginning of October. The Blue Devils bounced back from that loss by covering the spread as 2.5-point favorites in a win over Florida State. They put together another strong performance last week, as they had a 2-point conversion opportunity to win the game in overtime against then-No. 22 SMU.
Sophomore quarterback Maalik Murphy completed 27 of 48 passes for 295 yards, three touchdowns and zero interceptions against the Mustangs. He also had three touchdown passes in a road win at Northwestern as a 2-point underdog earlier this season. Duke is unbeaten against the spread in its last five games. See which team to pick here.
