Prediction:
The Blue Devils had to fight tooth and nail to get past UNC and the spread today against a deep and very talented FSU squad seems a little too wide on first glance. But when you delve deeper into it, you see that Duke has routinely been smashing teams on its home floor and the Seminoles have not played the most difficult schedule lately. Expect Duke to pull away and take this one by double digits. Bet accordingly.
