FB: Wake Forest 59, Duke 7

[OldPhiKap]

Such a classic line. Nicely done.

According to BobGreen, Rush is right.

Establishing the running game, I mean.

Don’t know (or care) about the rest!!!


;-)


Meanwhile — GAME DAY!!!!!! WOOT!!!!

[Bob Green]

GAME DAY. It is time to send the Seniors off with a victory! Go Duke! Beat Wake Forest!!

[budwom]

We were there, and hope that it was so.

She’s a good kid, she takes after her mother thankfully.

She’s pulling for a a Duke victory tomorrow, then a Bama win in the Iron Bowl after our game ends. Glad she is home for the break.

LGD!!!!!!!!!! (Roll Tide too, though don’t want to veer the thread off on that issue — I am sure that is a less than universal secondary position).

Any update on injuries?

ha ha ha ha, an update on injuries! Haven't lost your sense of humor, my good man...you'll get the nation's nuclear launch codes before you get an update on injuries...

Wake totally sold out on the run and stopped Pitt and State from running, but gave up big yards in the air. If Pitt couldn't run it versus Wakes new scheme, not sure if we can. But many passing opportunities should be open.

Sure....I agree....passing opportunities...but do we have anyone to catch the passes? 😈😈😈😈😈

I saw some pictures on social media which looked pretty wet. Is the rain supposed to be done and through by game time?

Well that's a fair question....but either way, if Pitt couldn't run on Wake's re-vamped defense and a new commitment to stop the run, not sure where I see us going on the ground.

It’s pouring right now a few miles SE of campus. Weather Channel says rain until about noon, showers after that to three, then cloudy. High in the 40s.

[chrishoke]

I see us using the spread no back look most of the day today.

Not so sure of that with Brown back. That, plus the weather.

You could be right. I hope not. We will know soon Go Duke. Looks like the rain may clear before kickoff.

[jimsumner]

The rain has slacked off. More of a drizzle. Still chilly. Hardly anyone in the stands. And no reason for them to be, 50 minutes before kickoff.

Giles-Harris, out.

Young, out.

Humphreys-he'll warm up and see how it goes.

[peloton]

Let's go Duke...beat the Deacs!

[budwom]

loads of good seats left on my couch! Was thinking of asking Cut to give his receivers a big face mask hole where the ball could stick when it hits them there. Always thinking innovation...

I think (unless the weather is worse than I think) that it will take 30+ points to win today...

Hot off the presses for Durham on Weather.com - rain at noon like 95% - down to 25% by 1 o clock for the rest of the day...with partly cloudy skies. Are we drying the field with a chopper?

The field dries well. Dries good?

The biggest impact of the weather may be the diminished turnout. There aren't more than 5,000 people in the stands. Maybe some late arrivals.

And, of course, minimal student turnout over the holiday.

They're showing the UNC/State game on the West Coast!! Why???? And UNC just fumbled a punt/kick in the end-zone. They stink!!! What programmer thought this would be a better game to show????

Sure it isn't on another channel? You can stream on the fox sports website I believe (and maybe WatchESPN since you're outside the blackout area).

Given the start of the Duke game, I think they made the better choice.
