We only had one Big East loss that year to #2 VaTech. Beat #9 Ohio State and #17 GaTech. Lost to #1 FSU by only 10 and lost to #3 Penn State by only 3. How does that compare to double digit losses to Louisville, GaTech and Nebraska? We also finished the season #15, 9-4 with a BRUTAL schedule.
Ohio State finished 6-6 and the coach ended up getting fired. That wasn't a good football team.
VaTech was the ONLY good team in the Big East. Everybody else was scrubby as ****. West Virginia, Pitt, Rutgers, and Temple went a combined 11-32.
Georgia Tech was the bowl game and we haven't played FSU yet, but ain't nobody around here interested in a close loss to them.
If anybody was beating up on pansies, it was Butch Davis in the year 1999.
Not to mention the fact that he lost to East Carolina.
Whether y'all want to acknowledge them or not, Duke is a good football program and their ONLY loss on the season thus far, is to Miami.
