BAYLOR (-5)  26   Duke  23

Duke’s 3rd-year starting quarterback Daniel Jones injured his shoulder last week and Quentin Harris takes over, which I believe to be a huge downgrade. However, the Duke offense should still perform at a decent level of Baylor’s defense continues to struggle against the run. The Bears have given up an average of 7.8 yards per rushing play to Abilene Christian and UTSA so expect the Blue Devils to run the ball more than they normally would and to have some success doing so. Duke’s other big loss was the season ending injury to 1st-Team All-ACC CB Mark Gilbert but the Blue Devils should still be good defensively (they’ve allowed just 10.5 points per game and 4.8 yards per play in wins over Army and Northwestern). I like Baylor’s quarterbacks and the Bears should have some success attacking a weakened secondary (backup CB McDuffie is also out), but I’d lean slightly with Duke plus the points.
