Duke vs Seattle Prediction
This is a weird spot for the Duke Blue Devils, as they just played Arizona and Kansas, and they have Auburn on deck. It’s a look ahead and letdown spot Duke. With that said, Duke is 7-3 ATS and SU in its last 10 games. There’s a massive talent gap, and the Seattle U Redhawks haven’t played much defense against far fewer teams. On paper, this should be a Duke blowout. It’s the Blue Devils or pass for me.
