This is a 10* BLOCKBUSTER on Duke.
For a number of different reasons I expect the "better" team to find a way to get the job done at the end of the night and to pull away down the stretch for the comfortable ATS victory. Utes coach Larry Krystkowiak has 110 career wins, 68 in four seasons in Utah, which has advanced to the Sweet 16 for the first time in a decade. Blue Devils coach Mike Krzyzewski has made 22 Sweet 16 appearances and has won more than 1,000 games. While the game is played by the players, there's no question that at this level and stage of the tournament, coaching is also a factor which can't be underestimated. Utah scraped by Stephen F. Austin in the opening round and managed to find a way to beat Georgetown in the second, but I think will run into a buzzsaw here, Duke presents significant match-up issues for the Utes, especially in the back court. DUKE has excelled in this spot for bettors all year (12-5 ATS vs. good defensive teams that allow 64 points or less per contest, 5-1 ATS in all tournament games and 6-2 ATS in all neutral court contests) and I look for that string to continue here, lay the short points.
