Ohio State lost nine players from last year and hasn't been a great three-point shooting team this season. They suffered an 88-77 loss to San Diego State shooting 42.4% from the field and 31.8% from long range. SDSU shot 50.8% and beat the Buckeyes on the boards. Ohio State lacks frontcourt height and muscle and that will hurt against this big Duke frontcourt of 7-foot Kyle Filipowski (15.4 ppg, 9.4 rpg), 6-10 senior Ryan Young (7 rpg), 6-8 Mark Mitchell, and 7-1 Derick Lively. Duke comes off an embarrassing 75-56 loss to Purdue but is a great bounce-back team without losing two in a row last season or so far in this one. Play Duke on the moneyline.
