This Duke team (4-1) is a dog here but shouldn't be. They are off a great season and are playing well again at #8 in the nation in points allowed (13.6 points per game). And the offense is outstanding, averaging over 220 yards rushing and passing. QB Anthony Boone has 7 TDs to 3 picks, while RB Shaun Wilson is averaging over 10 yards per carry along with his 435 yards. They are off a bad offensive game vs. Miami in the rain, but that was the first loss for Boone in 15 career starts outside of postseason play. And the defense only allowed 22 points. Since the start of last season, Duke is averaging 430 yards and 33 points per game. The Blue Devils are 7-2 ATS in their last nine ACC games, 10-3-1 ATS overall, and 6-1 ATS against a team with a winning record. Georgia Tech is unbeaten but has had a soft schedule, and even then they are not dominating, nipping Georgia Southern by 4 and Virginia Tech by 3. The Yellow Jackets are 6-19-2 ATS in their last 27 home games vs. a team with a winning road record. They are also 1-4 ATS at home and 2-7 ATS against a team with a winning mark. Take the points on Duke.
