Duke needed a lot of breaks to get past Central Florida and now it faces Virginia Tech, which shoots 47.3 percent overall and 39.5 percent from three-point range. Also, the Hokies allow a .404 shooting percentage, which almost matches Duke's .396. Virginia Tech has covered five of its last eight games while the Blue Devils are just 1-5-1 ATS their last seven games. The Hokies are in the Sweet 16 for the first time since 1967 and will make the most of it knowing that Duke is certainly beatable as it already lost to the Hokies 77-72 in February although Zion Williamson did not play in that game. Kerry Blackshear scored 19 points with nine rebounds in the 67-58 win over Liberty, which was held to 38.3 percent shooting. Duke is 1-9 ATS its last 10 games following a win and the Hokies have covered five of the last seven meetings with Duke and six of their last eight neutral-court games.
