This is a 10* BOOKIEKILLER on Duke.

There are always super high expectations for the Clemson Tigers. If they aren't in the Championship game, then essentially the season is viewed as a failure, despite how well the team actually did.

But expectations are also high in Duke this year after the Blue Devils finished 9-4 and a Bowl win under first-year head coach Mike Elko. Riley Leonard won't be intimidated here by Clemson, as he's already battle-tested after last season's stellar performance, throwing for 2,967 yards to go along with 20 TDs and six INTs.

Cade Klubnik won't have a "cakewalk" time here on the road. Yes, the Tigers are loaded everywhere and I'm not predicting an outright win here or anything for Duke, but the Blue Devils' strength on defense was in their secondary. They also have two great safeties in Brandon Johnson and Jaylen Stinson.

In a contest that I see being competitive late, I'm grabbing the points.

The play is DUKE.

Good luck, NP
