Pick by FOX Sports Betting Analyst Chris Fallica:

Duke is 5-0, but the Blue Devils have had some challenges. They had a double overtime win at Northwestern, a five-point win against UConn and a 20-point comeback against North Carolina. So, eventually, the coin flip is gonna go the other way. Tech has been off since a loss at Louisville, where the score really didn't do justice as to how close that game was. I laid 7 earlier in the week, and as long as it's under 10, I'd still feel good about the Jackets putting up a big number here. 

PICK: Georgia Tech (-9) to win by more than 9 points
