NCAA Basketball Odds - Duke vs. Virginia


Fans of the Duke Blue Devils have something to look forward to tonight, as their team travels to John Paul Jones Arena to take on the Virginia Cavaliers in NCAA basketball action.

Luckily, our good pals at Bodog have decided to hook us up with some prop bets for this game, as well as the usual odds on who’ll win or lose. And if you haven’t checked out Bodog, then why the hell not? They’ve got the best sportsbook, best online casino and their founder, Calvin Ayre, is the biggest pimp in the pimpin’ game today. Do yourself a favor and check them out.


DUKE BLUE DEVILS

The Blue Devils currently have a record of 25-3 and are ranked 6th in the nation by the AP Poll and 5th by the ESPN/USA Today poll. Led by guard DeMarcus Nelson and forward Kyle Singler, they’re coming off wins against Georgia Tech (71-58) and North Carolina State (87-86).

But three days from now, they’ll take on number-one-rated North Carolina, so there’s always the possibility that they look past the Cavaliers.


VIRGINIA CAVALIERS

Things aren’t going too well for the Cavs, as they’ve compiled a record of 14-13 this season. In their last two games, they lost to Miami (Florida) (93-95) and barely beat Georgia Tech (76-74). 8 ½ games back in the ACC, they lost 87-65 when they played Duke on January 13th. At least they’ve got home field advantage this time around.
