Premium Pick

Oral Roberts stepped up once this season to play No. 3 Houston...and got blown out scoring just 45 points. They will lean on defense and a slower pace against mighty Duke. Last year, Oral Roberts kept it close against Oklahoma State of the Big 12 in a 34-31 first half. Oral Roberts was third in the Summit League in points allowed and No. 1 in field goal shooting allowed (.414). They're 16-7 UNDER the total after five or more straight wins, as well as 36-20 UNDER the First Half Total on neutral courts. Duke has allowed 62.75 points over the last eight games, including winning the ACC tournament. The Blue Devils are second in the ACC defensively in points surrendered (63.9 ppg), field goal shooting allowed (.409), and 3-point defense (.304). Duke is 12-5 UNDER the total away from home against winning teams, 14-7 UNDER versus teams that commit 12 or fewer turnovers per contest, plus 13-6 UNDER when the total is 140 to 149.5. Take Oral Roberts/Duke UNDER for the full game + also play the First Half Total UNDER.
