James Madison vs Duke Predictions, Picks, and Odds: March Madness Second-Rounder Delivers Easy Points
Of course, that eye-roll-inducing one-liner is not as simple in this instance, the Dukes against Duke. Make that friend commit to a singular or a plural pronunciation. It's not so much that James Madison does not give up looks from deep as it is that the bulk of the Dukes’ schedule since Christmas preferred to not shoot 3-pointers.
James Madison has nearly matched that, its offensive efficiency up 6.1 points per 100 possessions in that same time frame. Furthermore, the Dukes are giving up 1.9 points more per 100 possessions. And no one in the Duke rotation will make better use of expected looks than freshman Jared McCain. He shot 39.7% from deep this season, hitting 2.2 per game.This spread opened at -6.5 or -7 in Saturday’s earliest hours, sportsbooks giving a strong amount of deference to James Madison’s upset of the Badgers. This then climbed to -7.5 on Sunday morning despite books reporting an abundance of support for the Dukes both in ticket count and handle amount.
