Mike Ryan predicting us to lose again before the ACC CG?

Anyone who thinks we can't lose any of the next three games doesn't watch Miami and just doesn't watch college football in general.
 
The same people who are in this thread saying we will destroy Duke and people are weak for thinking otherwise are the same people who said we’d destroy FSU and UNC. Just keep that in mind.
We are not going to destroy duke but it’s ok to expect a win albeit while acknowledging it’s gonna be a struggle. No one should be conceding a loss to ******* duke either
 
We are capable of losing to Duke and VT. How some of you don’t see this is beyond me. Have you not been watching our last several games?

We have the 2024 defense back there which means every game against teams with a pulse will be uncomfortable unless something drastic changes on defense (which won’t).
To say so would cause their egos to collapse on themselves like a black hole

Fwiw I think we cover

Am I expecting a win? Yes. Do I think it’s gonna be close like the last 3 games? Absolutely. 10 or less points I’d say.
 
Their HC is Manny Diaz. I can’t see him winning a big game.
Manny Diaz is 4-9 against ranked teams who finished the season ranked. Beat 2019 UVA @ Home. Beat NC State ant home and on the road for Pitt in 2021. Beat UVA in the ACC-CCG; after losing to them in the regular season.

He is 1-4 against GT in his career; including 0-3 against them as Duke’s HC.

Miami put up 53 points against his defense two years ago. After Duke scored on their first drive of the second half to go up 28-17, Miami went on a 36-3 run. Lofton and Fletcher both had touchdown runs.

Illinois is the only team above .500 that Duke has beaten so far this season.
 
Come ready to play. If the defense can build off some good things they did in the 2nd half against ND, I think we'll be good.

"So you're saying we dont finish ranked" is what the doomers will say.
 
I think OUR running game can be effective vs duke but you **** well know there will be some frustrating duke drives. You know, where we stop their running game on 1st and 2nd down setting up 3rd and 9 and theQB hits the TE for a gain of 14.
 
Can't believe mf's in here scared of Manny Diaz & Duke...
