Syracuse at Duke basketball: How to watch the game, betting lines
Hall of Fame coaches Mike Krzyzewski and Jim Boeheim pit their teams against each other for the only time in this pandemic-altered regular season when Duke meets Syracuse at Cameron Indoor Stadium on Monday night.
The Blue Devils (10-8, 8-6 ACC) enter the game on a three-game winning streak, including Saturday’s 66-65 win over Virginia that boosted Duke’s near-dead NCAA tournament chances. The Orange (13-6, 7-5 ACC) have also won three games in a row.
With Syracuse at No. 47 in the NET ratings and Duke at No. 56, this game will be a Quadrant 2 result for the Blue Devils and a Quadrant 1 result for the Orange. Home games against teams rated from 31-75 are Quadrant 2 and road games against teams 1-75 are Quadrant 1.
