If it's a spread in the 70s, I'm probably going Under and will do so here even though Wake Forest suddenly has become an offensive juggernaut. Let's say the Deacons get to 40 points. Can Duke get to 30? I highly doubt it considering the Blue Devils were blanked last time out at Virginia. Duke did have a bye week to prepare for that Wake offense as well. This should top out in the mid-60s.
The Demon Deacons have one of the most prolific offenses in the country, averaging 43.5 points per game. Even if you take away the 70 they put up on Army, it's still almost 39 ppg. Nobody has held Wake Forest under 35 points yet this season and Duke does not figure to be the first to do so. While the Demon Deacon’s defense has not been spectacular, it is good enough to keep the Blue Devils three or four touchdowns beind.
