Who's Playing

South Carolina State @ No. 2 Duke

Current Records: South Carolina State 3-7; Duke 7-1

What to Know

The #2 Duke Blue Devils will square off against the South Carolina State Bulldogs at 8 p.m. ET on Tuesday at Cameron Indoor Stadium. Duke is the favorite here -- although they were the favorites in their last game, too, so the odds might count for a little less.

The Blue Devils were within striking distance but couldn't close the gap two weeks ago as they fell 71-66 to the Ohio State Buckeyes. Guard Trevor Keels had a pretty forgettable game, finishing with only nine points on 3-for-12 shooting in his 36 minutes on the court.

Meanwhile, South Carolina State escaped with a win last Friday against the High Point Panthers by the margin of a single free throw, 67-66.

This next matchup looks promising for Duke, who are favored by a full 36.5 points. Those burned by picking them against the spread two weeks ago might want to keep in mind that the team has not yet dropped back-to-back games against the spread this season.

Duke is now 7-1 while South Carolina State sits at 3-7. Two offensive stats to keep in the back of your head while watching: The Blue Devils come into the contest boasting the 17th most points per game in college basketball at 83.1. Less enviably, the Bulldogs have only been able to knock down 37.30% percent of their shots, which is the 351st lowest field goal percentage in college basketball. So the cards are definitely stacked against South Carolina State.
