First of all, öööö Duke. The Devils will be breaking in a new starting QB but return a few RBs and WRs. They look to be weaker than normal on defense, losing a number of key players from an already weak starting lineup. This looks to be an easy victory for the Jackets.

Well, let's see. The last time we played them in Durham (2017) we got creamed 43 - 20 (really ugly - I was there), and we've won exactly one of the last five, and the one win was in Atlanta (2016) by 3 points. So we shouldn't lack for motivation. But the trend has been pitiful. This one will be tough to win in Durham. Regardless, I will again be there.
 
Will be tough to win. At least Daniel Jones is gone? I didn't think he was that great in college, but he was a Heisman contender against us. Idk, I get bad vibes playing @ Duke and @ UVA, the stadiums usually seem eerily dead and we always play horrible there. But who knows, by then we may be a really good team and pull it out, it's flip a coin IMO.
 
0.7. I would argue Duke actually had a schematic advantage over us in the same way we have had one over VPI. In short, Cutcliffe had the blueprint. They won't out-talent us with the losses they sustained in the offseason. Get ready to reassert dominance over Puke for years to come.
 
Geoff Collins will not lose to Duke.
 
This is a win I want more than all but four wins on our schedule. öööö duke

My thoughts exactly.
