The Blue Devils were able to snap a four-game skid both straight-up and against the spread with a season-ending 27-21 victory against Wake Forest as three-point road favorites to finish the year 7-5 SU and 6-6 ATS.

During its recent slide, Duke still managed to put up an average of 26.3 points a game as opposed to a season average of 30.8. The offense has gotten some solid production from both its passing and run game due to the play of quarterback Thomas Sirk. He threw for 2,462 yards and 15 touchdowns while also leading the team in rushing with 648 yards and six more scores on 143 carries. The main reason why the Blue Devils stumbled down the stretch was a defense that allowed 30 points or more in all four losses. This unit got tagged for 66 points in a loss to North Carolina and it gave up 42 points in a stunning setback as favorites against Virginia.

They did close-out the season with three-straight covers to finish 7-5 ATS. The total has gone OVER in their last six games.

This is another team that had some issues on defense down the stretch and, even in two season-ending victories as favorites against Maryland and Purdue, the Hoosiers gave-up a combined 64 points. Indiana tied for 24th in the nation in scoring with an average of 36.2 points per game, but it fell all the way to 118th in points allowed (37.1). Quarterback Nate Sudfeld could be the key to victory in this matchup after throwing for 3,184 yards and 24 touchdowns in the regular season.
