00:00 Mhm. Key games in the A. C. C. Mike Lewin, who would have thought a key
00:06 game here in late october would have been Duke and Florida State. Now the
00:09 line tells you we don't know how key this game is actually going to be a 14
00:13 and a half point favorite for Florida State. Rightfully so. Riley Leonard. We
00:16 don't know if he's coming back from that high ankle sprain. He suffered
00:19 late in the football game against Notre Dame. They won last week easily over
00:22 N. C. State, but obviously N. C. State and Florida State. The only thing in
00:26 common is the state on the name Florida State. A much, much better football
00:30 team here. A total of 49.5. This Florida State continued to roll where
00:34 this Duke surprised with the upset and get in the driver's seat in the A. C.
00:38 C. By staying unbeaten in conference play. I mean, you know, we're either
00:43 gonna have no Riley Leonard or a limited Riley Leonard in this one,
00:47 Donnie. I just don't see the way that they can compete in Florida State has
00:52 had some hiccup performances, but on the whole really good team here and I
00:58 just don't see keeping this one close to many. Obviously the point spread is
01:02 where it is because of the unknown status of Riley Leonard. So say he
01:06 comes out, he's playing this money. The lines comes down. What? Four points,
01:12 five points, six points in the favor of Duke. But I still don't think it
01:16 matters. I think he'd be under duress trying to be out against a team like
01:20 Florida State with Jared verse chasing him down trying to make plays. I think
01:25 he'd be at risk of being injured again if I'm Duke and he's questionable. I
01:29 think he give him another week and you live to fight another day. But it is
01:33 desperation times for Duke to try to stay in the mix in the A. C. C.
