T.M. Selection: Louisville/Duke OVER.

I am on the over in the Louisville vs Duke game on Thursday. Louisville has looked really good on offense this season. They started off the year putting up a lot of points in their games and were averaging almost 30+ points per game for their opening stretch of the season. They hit a bit of a skid lately but they looked a lot better in their previous game when their offense put up 41 points on Syracuse. Their defense looked great in that game, holding Syracuse to 3 points, but that is the exception to their play this year. Just like their offense was scoring a lot, their defense was giving up about the same amount of points in each game which is why they either won or lost a lot of close games this year within a touchdown. Duke has had a terrible defense in their games lately, giving up 40+ points in 4 games in a row. I think Louisville is going to score points with no problems on Duke's defense since they have been destroyed in their previous games. Duke's offense has looked a lot better though, putting up 17+ points in their previous 2 games. Louisville doesn't have a great defense either so I don't think they will be holding Duke down to no points. I think Louisville is going to score a lot here but I also think Duke can find the endzone a few times too. I like the over in this game.

T.M. Prediction: 45-31 Louisville.
