William & Mary vs Duke Pick

William & Mary has enough offensive balance to challenge Duke early, particularly with Watkins contributing as both a passer and runner. However, the Tribe must find a way to slow down Sheppard after he produced 528 rushing yards and 8 total touchdowns through Duke’s first 3 games. The Blue Devils should control the line of scrimmage and use their rushing attack to wear down William & Mary’s defense. Duke’s defensive pressure should also force Watkins into difficult third-down situations. Take the Blue Devils to pull away during the second half and record the home victory.
