- Duke Blue Devils record | 7-2
- Miami Hurricanes record | 8-1

## The matchup

Duke has won three straight, including a 41-3 rout of NC State on November 7 and a 47-2 blowout of Boston College on October 31, then a tighter 19-16 win over Virginia on October 23. Before that stretch the Blue Devils dropped back-to-back games, 20-24 to North Carolina on October 17 and 25-28 to Georgia Tech on October 10. On the season Duke has outscored opponents 297 to 117.

Miami's run hit a snag on November 7, a 24-31 loss at Notre Dame that snapped a string of wins. Before that the Hurricanes beat North Carolina 38-35 on October 31, Pittsburgh 52-23 on October 24, Florida State 43-35 on October 17 and Clemson 41-13 on October 3. Miami has piled up 405 points against 173 allowed this season.

## Key matchups

This one comes down to Duke's defense, which has held opponents to just 117 points on the year, against a Miami offense that's put up 405. If the Blue Devils can slow down that attack the way they did against NC State and Boston College the last two weeks, they give themselves a shot on the road.

On the other side, Miami's defense, which has allowed 173 points this season, gets a Duke offense that's scored 297. Duke's three-game win streak says the offense is finding rhythm; Miami's one-game skid says the defense has a chance to be tested again after the Notre Dame loss.

## The pick

Miami is favored by 13.5 with a total of 54.5, and the market has this one landing at 34-21 in the Hurricanes' favor. Miami's offense has been the story of the season at 405 points scored, and that edge at home should be enough to snap the one-game slide.

Duke's three-game streak and stingy defense make this closer than a blowout, but the gap in points scored this season favors Miami getting back in the win column.
