Clemson at Duke 12:00 noon, Wallace Wade Stadium

The Blue Devils desperately need an ACC win or a win in general, but against Clemson this will likely prove to be a difficult task.  The Tiger's have a balanced offensive attack with a solid running game to go with timely passing.  I feel the Dukies will find some ways to score, but the problem is Clemson will to.  The pick is Clemson 38 Duke 21

DURHAM, N.C. -- Freshman forward Kyle Singler scored 23 points to lead 10 Blue Devils in double figures as Duke defeated Shaw University, 134-55, in exhibition action on Thursday night in Cameron Indoor Stadium.

The Blue Devils turned a 9-5 lead into a 36-5 advantage with a 27-0 run that ended with Singler's layup at the 9:50 mark of the opening half.  Duke led 68-17 at halftime with Singler making all five of his field goal attempts while scoring a team-high 12 points.
