Duke vs Stanford Prediction

I’m on the over in this game. The only reason I’m not laying the points with Duke is because the Blue Devils as a big favorite as of late, have had a tendency to take their foot off of the gas and coast to the finish line, winning by margin but failing to cover the point spread. That being said, the offense hasn’t dipped, as Duke’s still scoring 80+ PPG in conference play this year and 82+ PPG at home this season. The only reason the Cal game didn’t go over was because Cal was held to 57 points, but this is still a decent Stanford offense and I don’t know if Duke will have an answer for a tower like Maxime Reynaud. I think this is going to be a higher-scoring game here, so give me the over in this one.
