Maui Invitational Championship – Duke vs Gonzaga Plays

1436

Duke vs Gonzaga +7 O/U 164.5

Ok, going to take a shot on this baby.   Both of these teams have high flying offenses and their game tempo would be even be higher if they were not blowing out teams and running the clock at the end.   Gonzaga leads college basketball in Points per game at 98.6 while Duke is 7th at 92.8.  Now one thing that we know is that Duke has had the best recruiting class by far with guys like Zion Williamson and RJ Barrett.   The important thing to know here is that Gonzaga returns 3 players including 2 upperclassman  who are very poised and played in this tournament last year.   Because of this I think this game remains very close which means a shootout at the end that will be very exciting to watch.   My numbers have this game up to 169 points and Duke should be favored by 4 points max.

Taking the over 164.5 and a little smaller on Gonzaga +7
