That would equate to Duke being a 13 point favorite, which is basically unprecedented as a road team in this series

For comparison purposes, Duke was pick 'em at Louisville, -11 @ Stanford, and -12@Va Tech.

They are -5.5 at UNC.

Home court advantage is ~3 points depending on which home court. So on a neutral court it would be dook ~-8.5.

So what could this mean? Driving around in frozen #WestHarlem today and pulled into a parking space on the street - they are rare with the plowing having eliminated many (piled up snow). I asked the guy in the guard booth looking out over these spaces if he knew the owner. He said no but that it hadn’t moved in a couple of weeks. Ticketing has been suspended all week because of the weather but this car must have at least one or two tickets anyway. Besides the dook sticker there are also Cornell and a Columbia ones.

Omen of some kind? Interpreters needed.

Dude. You buried the lede. It’s a Touareg!

Not the initial line. Oddsmakers set the line and from there which way the line moves is based on where the bettors are putting their money.

Right, but the bettors ultimately set the line after the end initial one. The guys who set the original are good at it. I read where home field is now more like 2 points now.

Looked it up before I posted it and for college basketball it is ~3 points though like any sport it depends on the game, e.g. some teams have a better HCA than others.
