Slaying the sportsbook is a monstrous task. Some days bettors take up residence in a penthouse suite. Other times, they curl up in the nearest ditch, shirtless and toothless. In an attempt to avoid complete destitution, I will post my picks, whether profitable or penniless, through the NCAA tourney. Check out Monday's selections below:  Louisville (19-4, 10-9 ATS) at Duke (17-6, 10-11) – In light of the Cardinals' untimely self-imposed ban, the sand in the hourglass is running thin on their season. Instead of sulking about the penalty, UL throttled a JV-level Boston College team 79-47 last Saturday. And that was without star transfer Damion Lee (knee). Though the opponent is much stiffer this time around, Lee's expected return combined with the Cardinals' sterling D (No. 3 nationally in D efficiency) give them the edge. Whether employing man or zone, Duke's D continues to be a sieve (No. 136 in D efficiency). It's repeatedly yielded clear driving lanes and numerous second-chance opportunities. Over the Devils' past seven contests, they've surrendered a barf-worthy 1.17 points per possession. Unless Duke drains threes from ridiculous distances, which will be difficult against Louisville's strong perimeter D (30.1 3PT% allowed), bank on Chinanu Onuaku and friends to clean up inside. That comes to fruition and awestruck Eli faces  are sure to decorate the Cameron crowd.  Prediction: Louisville (+4.5) 78 Duke 74  Continue to Article
