Just a few short years ago, who would have ever dreamed that Duke could play in the ACC Championship game? Not only that, but follow that up with perhaps another appearance. Duke has been under the radar simply because they are Duke, and just don't get the respect any other team in the ACC would get by doing the above. Duke is now 16-3 in their last 19 regular season games and have gone 12-3-1 ATS in their last 16. Yet somehow the oddsmakers just don't seem to give them any respect. As a result, they are still a valued team. Pittsburgh has lost four out of their last five games, and included in the mix is an 11-point home loss to Akron, and a pasting by Georgia Tech in their last game 56-28. Pittsburgh has only covered one of their last six. Once over their head in ACC play, Duke has now captured the money in 9 of their last 11, while it is the Pitt Panthers that appear to be drowning. I like taking the dog with a better resume, and one that has a legitimate shot at winning outright. Grab the points on Duke.
