Duke vs Wofford Prediction
The Duke Blue Devils are going to get all of the love from oddsmakers, especially at home, but the Wofford Terriers have the offensive horses to hang around in this contest. This is also a look ahead spot for Duke, with massive games against Arizona and Kansas on deck. This just feels like a weird spot for Duke after than Kentucky game and who it plays next. I expect a closer than expected game. Give me Wofford and the points.
