Tulane at Duke: Matchup Breakdown and Best Prediction

Duke deserves to be favored at home, but Tulane is capable of compressing the game and staying attached through disciplined possessions. The matchup becomes particularly valuable if Tulane avoids giving Duke short fields.

Taking the points is the strongest angle. Tulane can lose a competitive game and still cover a number approaching double digits, giving the pick more paths to success than the outright upset.
