Duke -10.5

Agree T.  One thing that's improved with age and that's my "eyes" when watching teams.  Seen both.  25 is conservative.

Happy Eating.

The Maui event is solely a Duke Showcase...the refs wont bite the hand that feeds them...Duke by 20+ unless they call off the dogs with 6min left in the game...Auburn will have no answers to stop Dukes speed and athleticism and big men Barrett and Zion...they barely handled Xavier who are slow and mediocre at best.

When I think about Duke lines now, I think back to that Kentucky game too. The Wildcats were supposed to be the 2nd-best team in college basketball, and I think Duke was a 2.5-point dog going into tipoff. Duke won by 34.

You're absolutely right that the market hasn't caught up to how good Duke is. It's scary to see kids that big and that skilled. It seems like if they're playing another college basketball team, they should automatically be 20-point favorites. 

Like you, I'll gladly take the Blue Devils at -10.5 against a team whose best players are 5'10" and 6'3". Best of luck .

Their entire starting line-up might be first round picks. I love the first half. They come out guns blazing and love to shoot the three ball. Zion loves to crash the boards too. Duke -6 first half for me until proven otherwise.

Auburn win this by 9 points .. 85 - 76  straight  up

Auburn lead this game at half by 5 points ..   and i'll bet all you guys gonna start chasing Duke 2nd half really hard  .. you will fail  100 %  ... watch and learn today , it's gonna go down for sure !! 

and stop it with all the crap about biting the hand that feed duke or whatever ..   you betters are the one that feed " Duke " not the coaches , not the refs .. and Duke will 100 % eat up them bets today ..    and eventually all of you will learn a lesson today   

let's get it !! i love good competition 

Auburn is better then UK this year !! Yes 100 % !! ..  u shouldn't even ask that question , if you know your stuff .. do a little more study bro .. you're about to find out if they are better then UK or not .. Stay Tune 

Oh, brother....*yawn*

This the same Auburn team that went to OT with Xavier to start the tournament? You will be nowhere to be found after this game 

Beyond the Duke eye test, talent test, results test, coaching test, one more place to look - common opponents... Auburn and Xavier played to a draw in regular time. Xavier is playing SD State at 47-47 at the time of this writing... And duke demolished San Diego State who, if we draw out the analogy, is at most 5-6 pts worse than Auburn based on just this... Fuzzy math and specific situations in each prior game abound but what has auburn keeping this game close other than 'refs' which I will never place a bet on except for in boxing....

make sure all you guys come back and comment after this game    

Let's get it     Duke ain't nothing , y'all brainwashed ..  V - tech , UVA , UNC , Florida St .. they all got a good chance to beat Duke .. hell , put Boston College in the list too ..  Overrated team without any experience .. I'll take Michigan all day to win it all this year over Duke .. ALL DAY
