This is an 8* play on the Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets.

Georgia Tech is undefeated at 5-0, but after seeing so many undefeated teams fall victim to upsets the last two weeks, it seems like the trendy thing to do is fade the favorite in this spot. I'm not going to fall into that trap here though, as I think the home team is a well deserved favorite today.

Duke did not look impressive in a loss at Miami two weeks ago, and that same Miami team came into Atlanta and took a beating last Saturday. "We're getting better every week," coach Paul Johnson said. "That's what you hope that you can do."

The Blue Devils exceeded all expectations last year, winning 10 games and a division title. They still lost at home to Georgia Tech by a score of 38-14 though. The Yellow Jackets ran wild in that game, picking up 344 yards on the ground. After seeing Miami punish them on the ground in their last game, there's every indication that it's going to be a similar story here this time around.

The Yellow Jackets are 10-0 straight up, and 8-2 ATS in the last 10 meetings.

Take GT.
