Here’s the thing. Duke does not have a deep bench. In fact, the Blue Devils may have the shortest bench in the entire NCAA.
This is a team that plays, more often than not, with six players in a game. That does not bode well if the whistle starts calling. And it could be enough to send up some flares for people looking to side with Duke on this one. Something else that could do that? The Blue Devils are 0-6 ATS in their last five games.
The total has gone UNDER in eight of the Devils’ last 11 games as well, while, on the flip side it has gone OVER in four of Yale’s last six. The Bulldogs are also 8-3 ATS in their last 11.
All of that aside, Duke is consistently good in March. This is a program that has won their last five games in the second round of the NCAA Tournament and boasts a 7-2 record SU in its last six games in the month of March.
