The Duke Blue Devils will visit the Ohio State Buckeyes in this college basketball matchup.
The No. 1 Blue Devils defeated the Bulldogs in an emotional 84-81 victory in Las Vegas on Friday. Paolo Banchero led the way with 21 points for the Blue Devils in the close game.
The Blue Devils are led in scoring by Freshman sensation Paolo Banchero who is averaging 18.3 points per game and 7.6 rebounds a game. Wendell Moore is averaging 17.9 points for the Blue Devils to go with 6.3 rebounds and 5.7 assists a game. Trevor Keels averages 12.3 points a night.
Duke is averaging 85.6 points per game and are shooting 48.7% from the field. The Blue Devils are allowing opponents to score 64.6 points per game. The Blue Devils are 5th in field goals made per game at 32.3 a night.
Ohio State is coming off of a heartbreaker when Tyree Appleby hit a 3-pointer at the buzzer to put Florida past Ohio State 71-68 in the Fort Myers Tip-Off championship game on Wednesday night. E.J. Liddell scored 23 points for Ohio State. Kyle Young finished with 11 points.
The Ohio State Buckeyes are led in scoring by E.J. Liddell who is one of the top scorers in the nation with 22.5 points and 6.2 rebounds a game for the Buckeyes. He is the only player scoring in double figures for this squad as Zed Key averages 9 points.

The Buckeyes are 1-5 ATS in their last 6 games following a straight up loss and are 1-5 ATS in their last 6 Tuesday games. This looks like a letdown spot for Duke, but they should be fired up now that they are the No. 1 ranked team in the nation. I expect for them to get a big win in this one as they continue to assert their dominance after a mediocre run last season.
