Our Virginia Cavaliers vs Duke Blue Devils Prediction
It is not every year that a team that lost five games in the regular season gets the chance to play in a Power 4 Conference Championship game; however, that is the case with Duke on Saturday night. The Blue Devils may have lost five times, but won the games that counted in the ACC to put themselves in a position to win a conference title.
Standing in their way are the Virginia Cavaliers, who lost just once to an ACC opponent this season. The Cavaliers also played the Blue Devils just a few weeks ago, which resulted in a dominant 34-17 win for Virginia.
Considering that a possible College Football Playoff berth is on the line for Virginia, we are likely to see a similar result to the regular-season meeting. The Cavaliers are simply better in nearly every area; therefore, our Duke Blue Devils vs Virginia Cavaliers prediction is: Virginia Cavaliers ML.Claim $200 for your Virginia Cavaliers vs Duke Blue Devils wager!
