Duke vs. North Carolina Line Comparisons – February 8

Duke vs. North Carolina line comparisons appear below with LIVE betting on every play available throughout this game.  Find all the latest College Basketball game lines at Bookmaker.eu here.

Duke +6.5 – 18 percent of online sportsbooks offering this line.

North Carolina -6 – 82 percent of online sportsbooks were offering this line.

Both Bookmaker.eu and The Orleans opened this line at -7 Tar Heels. 

Spread action for this game was balanced while the UNDER 158.5 was getting more than 90 percent of the betting action.

During the last three seasons, only 4 of the last 18 February games have gone OVER for Duke.   Against conference opponents, the UNDER is 30-14 in North Carolina games.  5 of 5 games in this series have gone UNDER the total over the last 3 seasons.

North Carolina averages a conference-leading 84.1 points while the Blue Devils are giving up 69.1 per contest and are last in the conference with opponents shooting 43.8 percent, which might actually give the OVER an edge in this matchup. 

"They can be an offensive juggernaut, and especially at home," said Duke coach Mike Krzyzewski, whose teams have split the last 10 meetings in Chapel Hill. "So we have to play really good defense in order to have an opportunity to beat them."

Duke is 4-1 Straight Up vs. North Carolina over the past three seasons and has gone 3-2 Against The Spread. 

The No. 10 Blue Devils look to avoid dropping consecutive games for the first time in three years while trying to prevent the fifth-ranked Tar Heels from a sixth straight win Wednesday night in Chapel Hill.

Duke is 4-0 on the road in the ACC.

Again, this should be a heavily wagered game that CAN BE BET LIVE throughout the game.  Bet on every play as the game progresses.
