Duke vs Georgia Tech Prediction 

Duke comes into this matchup looking to bounce back from their first loss of the season and they will be at home. The Blue Devils are shooting 50% from the field and they have scored at least 80 points in three of their last five games. Georgia Tech has won four in a row, but they have four losses on the season and they are shooting 45% from the field. The Yellow Jackets have scored at least 87 points in three straight games and while I think Duke will get a relatively easy win, I like Georgia Tech and the points here.
