1-UnitPlay. Take #526 Duke (-3.5) over Louisville (7 p.m., Monday, Feb. 8)
Thisis a bad spot for the Cardinals. They are underdogs on the road here despitebeing the ranked team, and I think that Duke needs this game worse than theCardinals do. Damien Lee is questionable today and if he doesn't play theCardinals are screwed. I also think that Louisville is set to have a letdownhere. Over the weekend they found out that they aren't eligible for postseasonplay and that is a crushing blow to a team that is in the Top 20. The Cardinalswere dealing with a lot of emotions on Saturday and they channelled it intodestroying a feeble Boston College team. But now they are coming out of thebubble after three straight emotional home games - hosting Virginia, upsettingNorth Carolina and then their Angry Game against B.C. - and I think that theyare going to flop. I also think that Duke will relish being able to play therare role of home underdog. I know they are favored at the books. ButLouisville is ranked and Duke isn't. So the Blue Devils will be able to playwith a little chip on their shoulder today and I think they win this one goingaway.
Carpediem. Good luck.
