We have a Tuesday night ACC showdown at Cameron Indoor Stadium as the No. 2 Duke Blue Devils plays host to the Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets.
Duke (11-1, 1-0 ACC) was successful in its conference opener against Virginia Tech, cooking the Hokies for a 76-65 victory last Wednesday. The Blue Devils trailed by as many as eight points in the second half but were surge ahead and withstand a terrific performance from Keve Aluma to win. Freshman Paolo Banchero put up 23 points and eight rebounds for the evening.
Georgia Tech (6-6, 0-2 ACC) has had an extremely rough go of things over the last month, dropping five of its last six contests and its first two conference outings. The Jackets are coming off a 67-64 loss to Louisville on Sunday, a game where Michael Devoe led with 23 points.

The Pick
Duke -17.5
17 points is a lot for a conference game, even for Duke. But consider how much Tech is struggling, especially against the spread. The Jackets are 3-8-1 ATS this season and 0-4-1 as an underdog. They’re not rising to the occasion in most of their games and this an opportunity for the Blue Devils to roll in front of the Cameron Crazies.
