FWIW, Jay Bilas on ESPN+ rates teams and players for the upcoming season. Duke is among the nine teams that can win it all, and with a pithy rationale -- "There is too much talent to dismiss Duke's title chances." Others -- Gonzaga, Iowa et al. -- got a bit more explanation (Luke Garza, etc.). I suspect that's what happens when you have 11 players that can play and no clear All-American contender.

'When I got on the bus for my first road game at Duke, I saw that every player was carrying textbooks or laptops. I coached in the SEC for 25 years, and I had never seen that before, not even once.' - David Cutcliffe to Duke alumni in Washington, DC, June 2013
