Its possible they play their best game of the season, inspired by the chance to salvage something. We’ve seen it happen plenty of times in these rivalry games. Of course, we’re also talking about a program run like this (https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/VtJLTZLoR58qHJaDplLB-VSCtmssh2BqAJOk9nbXCW6ieKz0t6yecoMDVQ-KFDnJ1lfPOXJ0zrb1Mu2O-hbLd6sALAkBVAelRZJQBGdFzb9TpVpPQKp7gmljZ_TriYDgJ_z ULWZRhw=w1000-h1289-no), so maybe I’m giving them too much credit.

Incredible that this fell off the first page, but anyway.

UNC's current backup QBs are a walk-on Senior and a WR, so we're getting the Nathan Elliott treatment here this week (Their other frosh QB prospect injured himself after 5 passes last week because lol). He's probably the least mobile QB Duke has played in weeks, and isn't good at passing either. Duke should be selling out to stop the run, which is UNC's only offensive strength - by their RBs, not the QB of course. Force Elliott to throw on 3rd, and it's can be pick city.

11-05-2018, 08:38 PM
Does Elliot know how to throw with one hand? If so then he's already an improvement over that bum they had out there last year.

Coach Cutcliffe Tuesday press conference:

http://www.goduke.com/mediaPortal/player.dbml?DB_OEM_ID=4200&id=6296570

1. Joe Giles-Harris is day-to-day. There is no definitive timetable for his return.
2. Talked about the impact of having Ben Humphreys back and feeling healthier along with Quansah, Dimukeje, Tangelo and McDuffie. He specifically singled out McDuffie as having a great practice this morning.
3. Coach talked a lot about Carolina being a talented football team on tape. He praised their kicking game, return specialists and defensive line. He specifically stated this is not "Coach Speak" that he has watched the tape and they are talented.

Lots of info available if you click on the link with those three items standing out to me.

I was hoping for some specific injury updates but knew I wasn't going to get any. It would be nice to get more players healthy and available for Saturday. Brittain Brown and Aaron Young come to mind.

I think it was simply a tongue-in-cheek comment in response to someone giving Sonny credit for a seven-game winning streak, including three years when Sonny was not at Duke (and one year when Sonny would have been an Imp, not a Devil).

Pitt: UNC beat by 3, Duke lost on road by 9 ... advantage UNC
@Mia: UNC lost by 37, Duke won by 8 ... advantage Duke
VT: UNC lost by 3, Duke lost by 17 ... same result (loss); maybe advantage UNC
UVA: UNC lost on road by 10, Duke lost by 14 ... [wash]

So, maybe 2 advantage UNC, 2 advantage Duke, 1 wash.

The rivalry component and the football component are both a bit...opaque as currently presented.

Thanks for the correction. Still a bad taste from the “our Blue is better” marketing from 2014, when we then came out in black.

Finally, a cover image of the Iron Dukes office. "What's that? You're holding the tickets in your hand? Then why are you calling? Hold on... I need to get rid of the NC State guy on the other line, who also somehow has tickets."

On November 15, 1941, Duke hosted Carolina and beat them 20-0, in the homestretch of an undefeated regular season. (This was the Rose Bowl-in-Durham season, which has been discussed on DBR before (https://forums.dukebasketballreport.com/forums/showthread.php?31747).)

8797

It was nice of them to put Red Wilson on the program cover of what looks like his final game as Duke's head coach. Duke hosted Carolina and beat them 23-17, finishing the season 6-5. Bowl eligible? Not exactly. I doubt there were enough bowls back then, or that 6 was any kind of magic number. Bowl committees must have discovered easy corporate money, corruption, and incompetence later.

Somehow I was there for that game which was 1982 I think, did not get season tickets until 1985 or so, nothing was on TV up North.
The game completely blew my mind...while I didn't know the personnel much at all, it was clear that unc had a whole bunch of really good defensive players, some of them NFL level,
and while they got enormous pressure on Bennett, he kept them off balance all game long with timely screen passes, delays to running backs, despite what looked to me like a significant
talent gap (though Bennett was terrific). Then I learned about Spurrier being OC and kept on eye on him as his reputation grew...

Article on Wilson being let go. (https://www.upi.com/Archives/1982/11/23/Red-Wilson-said-he-had-no-idea-his-contract/7444406875600/) I believe he stayed around as a fundraiser for a while. I remember serving him (and Wallace Wade) drinks at the banquet center under the medical library.

It was my belief at the time that they attributed the success of 1981-82 to Spurrier a lot more than Red Wilson. So when Spurrier was leaving for the USFL, they wanted to make a change.

Interesting...and thanks for the insight. So he got the Bucky Waters treatment.....stuck around in a cushy job for a bit.

And no doubt a lot of the credit goes to Spurrier, but credit the coach who hired him - that would seem like the thing to do. What I had heard, from someone with some inside info - but not an impeachable source by their own admission - said that some of the donors didn't like Red's country persona (guess those donors died or got over it with Cut)....and that his image is why they got rid of him. I reckon both can be true, and both be factors to some degree. And while Sloan didn't pan out, there was no way to assume Red without Spurrier would have either. I just remember being surprised, and not in a good way, that he was let go as coach.

What happened to this web site? We are playing our rivals tomorrow, and nary a word on this site. Really??? WTH?

So, a few people complained. $10 says they did not graduate from Duke.

I love this site because it is about Duke - not just a single sport. Duke is our passion - not just basketball. I have season tickets to both, and I want this site to support both. So, here we are on the eve of an epic battle and I hear almost nothing from the base.

Jim Summer, Bob Green, the faithful others -- what happened to you? I need your insights and understanding.

I will be there tomorrow. I hope you will.

Article on Wilson being let go. (https://www.upi.com/Archives/1982/11/23/Red-Wilson-said-he-had-no-idea-his-contract/7444406875600/) I believe he stayed around as a fundraiser for a while. I remember serving him (and Wallace Wade) drinks at the banquet center under the medical library.

It was my belief at the time that they attributed the success of 1981-82 to Spurrier a lot more than Red Wilson. So when Spurrier was leaving for the USFL, they wanted to make a change.

Interesting the article says Duke was in the running for the Hall of Fame Bowl. There were 16 bowls in 1982 for 32 teams, and in the SRS, Duke was ranked as the #39 best team of 1982, so I guess not that outlandish. The article says AFA got the nod, and they were rated #45 -- they beat Vandy, coached by MacIntyre, father of our 2008-09 defensive coordinator.

Duke--less than I want. > 30 is a goal and a realistic outcome.

Excited for today but also anxious. This 1-7 UNC team has actually played much tougher than their record. They are a mess but capable. Similar to Duke’s performance in 2016, I’m expecting UNC’s best. This win would salvage their season to some degree. We need to come out focused and ready. Let’s jump on them early and don’t give them hope. Take care of the ball. If we can establish Deon Jackson early, everything else should fall into place. I don’t expect a letdown after a big Miami win since we are playing UNC. So let’s go get it. Control their run, don’t let their QB scramble and make plays (an issue for us this year), make them pass and force them into mistakes. I think they’ll make enough of them that we survive and hold on to the bell, winning 30-20 (late score ices it). At least that’s what I’m hoping for. Let’s go Duke!

I think the runs outside are more intended to set up throws down field by keeping the defense spread. We scored a touchdown earlier by pulling the safety out of the middle with that sweep action and then hitting the tight end up the seam.

We’ve scored 35 first half points and people are killing Roper for some runs? I get the criticism of Roper at times, but today’s not the day for that. How about calling out the defensive staff? Let’s make some adjustments and get a couple of stops. Let’s also score out of the half and try to get control of the game. Let’s finish this.

On that last interception the CHeat defender would have been better off knocking the ball down. Then they would take over at the 26 instead of the 20. But obviously we shouldn’t expect anybody from that school to make a smart play.
