Duke may be 17-3 Straight Up but they are just barely hanging above .500 Against The Spread at 10-9-1 ATS.  Virginia, meanwhile, has paid out in all but five of its Straight Up wins.  The home teams have won the last four games in this series with both splitting wins over this period.

In the last 20 seasons under Coach K, Duke is 18-33 (35.3%) overall as an underdog, but just 1-5 when listed as this HIGH of a point spread underdog. 5 of the 7 games in which Duke has been listed this high of an underdog have come against North Carolina with their only 2 other games tomorrow vs. Virginia and in 2011 against Ohio State.

The Cavaliers are 13-2-1 Against The Spread in their last 16 games following a ATS loss while Duke is -8 ATS in their last 11 games following a ATS loss.
