The Dayton Flyers made a deep run in the NCAA Tournament last year, and here they are off to a stellar 10-2 start to the season, and a perfect 7-0 at home. Those numbers have helped fuel the line in this one vs. Duquesne. The Dukes have not played a very difficult schedule, so their 5-6 record has them looking suspect, but the top two games on their schedule included a 14-point loss to Pitt and a 2-point loss to Penn State, so they certainly should at the very least be able to hang around in this one. The Dukes have been a good road team where they own an 8-3-1 ATS mark in their last 12 on the road, and have stepped up vs. the better teams at 3-0-1 ATS in their last four vs. a team over .600. This one will be closer than it looks, so back Duquesne in this one.
