The Leopards are 0-5 ATS in their last 5 road games and 0-7 ATS in their last 7 games overall. The Blue Devils are 3-1-1 ATS in their last 5 home games and 4-1-1 ATS in their last 6 games overall. The under is 5-2 in Leopards last 7 road games. The under is 4-1-1 in Blue Devils last 6 overall.

The Lafayette Leopards have gotten clapped through their first three games and haven’t played a lick of defense in any contest. The Duke Blue Devils are obviously better than their first three opponents, so this game is likely going to be worse. The only issue here is a lack of motivation and taking the foot off the gas. Either way, I’ll eat the chalk with Duke.
