Duke at Memphis

Duke was impressive a week ago with a 45-0 win over North Carolina Central. But, Duke's opponent didn't have just something to do with that - it had everything to do with it. Duke went to a Bowl Game last year and started this season with a 45 point win. They must be a decent, improving team, right? Let's not forget that they lost their last five games, allowing 42 points or more in all of them! Memphis closed last season in just the opposite fashion, and this will be their opener. The Tigers went 42 straight games without scoring more than 35 points. The fact is that this team was lucky to find the win column, but came together at the end of last season, and did something special. The Tigers won their last three games, scoring 37 or more points in all of them. They certainly are capable of at the very least making a game of this, as Duke is just 1-7 ATS in their last eight on the road. The Tigers are a perfect 4-0 ATS in their last four, and have the feeling now of what it is like to win. Play on the home dog, and back Memphis.
