The line move makes sense with around 60% of the spread action on Virginia Tech, not Duke.
Virginia Tech advanced to the Sweet Sixteen for the first time in 52 years by beating 12th-seeded Liberty 67-58 in the second round of the NCAA Tournament on Sunday.
Zion Williamson and RJ Barrett saved top-ranked Duke from a second-round upset at the hands of UCF on Sunday, with coach Mike Krzyzewski praising the freshman tandem for "willing us to win."
Predictions
From Picks and Parlays: "The Duke Blue Devils were caught in a close game with the UCF Knights in the 2nd round of the tournament and were even bailed out by missed rebounds and shots. The Duke Blue Devils are familiar with the Virginia Tech Hokies as they are a conference foe, and while Virginia Tech won the regular season matchup the best player in college basketball was out (Zion Williamson). The Duke Blue Devils are easily the best team in the nation as they have a talented group of freshmen who have a ton of chemistry. Zion Williamson is a mismatch for any team in college basketball, and what concerns me the most is the depth of the Hokies. Final Score Prediction, Duke wins and covers ATS 82-70."
