Virginia vs. Duke CBB Prediction:
Both teams look to win consecutive games on Saturday.
Take the Blue Devils. I know UVA won on the road last out, but for the most part they have struggled. Duke has found their rhythm on the offensive end of the floor and I just don’t UVA will be able to keep up in this despite their strong defense. Blue Devils pull away in the second to win this one by double digits.
