Selection: Duke Blue Devils +2.5
--110. Given matchup tendencies and situational factors, the game projects as tightly contested; this spread offers protection by letting Duke lose by a couple points or win outright, making it a calculated play on expected parity. The +2.5 explicitly allows Duke to lose by up to 2 points or win and still cover, so the wager targets a late, competitive game flow rather than a blowout.
