So how many of you are watching tonight..

I want to see improvement, but a win is a win.

I think our run game will be the key. I feel like they will sell out to limit us on the ground so the big guys up front will need to bring their A game.

Defensively, they will attack us underneath. I expect quick hitting routes to move the ball quickly and efficiently. We will see a bunch of three and four wide receiver sets, so the corners and backers need to be on point.

Duke hasn't been a flashy team, but one that is well coached and executes efficiently with players who aren't physical specimens. They are an intelligent team in that they know and stick to their roles.

I expect a win, somewhere in the 10 to 14 range. That number could climb if we just out athlete them. Either way, I think it'll be a fun game to watch.
 
Jesse Palmer isn't on the broadcast tonight, right? For some reason he's been slurping Dook hard this season.
 
I think we show real Canes football tonight. I don't think Perry nor Smith sniff the field as much and Dee is on an extremely short leash. I think we allow Rosier to run more and Walton gashes Duke's run defense for at least 120 and 2 tubs. Final score: Canes 41 Duke 10.

I'll be watching Dee Delaney and Travis Homer and I want to see what difference Ahmmon makes.

Duke has played Baylor and UNC and still have the #11 defense. It might be legit. Throw in the fact that its at their place and that they're eternally ****ed at us over the lateral winning play, I think the score will be closer. Miami 35-24

Baylor and UNC have one combined win against Old Dominion. Baylor has loses to Liberty and UTSA.

I don't think anybody watches any game with the sole intent on finding flaws. If you see issues, especially reoccurring ones, that's definitely grounds for concern especially if they can cost you games down the line. No team is perfect and if you're good enough to overcome your mistakes it don't matter anyway. If someone wants to find something to cry about they'll find something. Is what it is.
 
I highly suspect we will see a lot of "back to the basics" tonight.

I don't think they can matchup with our speed at WR.

I think we win 31-10.
 
I’ll be on my couch with my cane soft plushy football and white away jersey. I feel we play our first complete game

When Richards and Walton start off, Game Over

There is no doubt that they are our 2 biggest game breakers. But, tonight Richards will be carefully eased into our offense. He has not played all year and it will take at least one game to regain his mojo. Hamies are a difficult injury to rehabilitate. Strategy is to test Richards out tonight with some short patterns and at the sidelines. He may be a decoy long, but I don't expect any bombs thrown to him. Key is saving him for next week and if he comes out of game tonight ok, then FSU will see the real Richards.

Funny, Duke fans are saying the exact same thing...they're going to make a statement tonight. One went so far as to say Miami won't be able to handle their defense team speed.

That's hilarious! It's going to take blown assignments and poor play calling on both sides of the ball to lose tonight. Duke is certainly not the worst team that we'll face all year long but we certainly are more talented top to bottom
