FB: Duke @ MTSU 9/14 7PM on Facebook

Great play by Rumpf (after penalty). Maintained contain on QB, unlike prior possession when QB was able to get to the outside. I think he will be a beast for us. Love Rumpf.

Two stupid flags on us to give them two first downs.

Still have concerns with our secondary. Otherwise, very strong game for the Devils.

I don't think they' re very good at setting the edge either....last few plays demonstrated some total misses on that.

Agree. The coverage on that last MT td was especially bad. But otherwise, great game.

Duke 48 - MTSU 17

41-18. Close enough for government work! Great game team! LGD GTHc!

Excellent win for our Blue Devils. We are right on schedule, 2-1 through 3 games. Time to heal up during the bye week and get ready for the upcoming ACC schedule.

Seriously?!? You obviously did not accurately predict MTSU making their 2 point conversion. You need to tighten things up before I can start relying on you for my lottery numbers.

Yep, need to get our killer B's back - Brittain Brown and Bobo.

Fortunately, they were not needed tonight and hopefully, will heal nicely over the next 13 days before playing the Hokie Pokies.

Did I hear the announcer say Bobo was on the field for one play tonight?

My old ears may have heard the same thing.

Steve Wiseman tweeted that he was on the field for a play but time out was called. He never stepped back on the field. I didn’t notice or hear it.

Was that our starters covering that TD?

I don't believe anyone was covering that TD.

Just got back from the game. The first MTSU drive worried me a lot … lots of dink passes that we could not stop. They were headed for a TD until that offensive pass interference call and even then almost got it back. After Duke responded with its first TD, it seemed headed for an inevitable up-and-down type high-scoring game. Then came the plays of the game, in my opinion: the successful onside kick and the ensuing 4th down long pass play to Young. Those plays took the air out of the stadium and the MTSU offense seemed to go into a funk in the 2nd quarter, helped by a torrid Duke pass rush. The MTSU offense recovered in the 2nd half, but it was way too late … they just could not stop the Duke O.

Harris looked in complete control of the offense; I was impressed by my first live look of him. And the receivers, I can just add my agreement to all the comments here. I thought our running game looked better than some here have mentioned; yes, some plays were stopped but on others the runners kept going until the 3rd or 4th hit. I was not as impressed with the defense; as I mentioned, it could well have turned into a shootout. But I will say that the MTSU quarterback, O'Hara, is a player; he is quick and elusive and can also throw a decent pass. I think the Vols would love to have him right now.

I only remember three plays that resulted in a Duke injury stoppage: once for Cerenord, twice for Quansah. Each time, the player ran off the field and came back later. There might have been a kick return where somebody got injured, I am foggy on that one.

The MTSU band rocked. However, the bimbo that tried to get the crowd excited during the timeouts was excruciating; she was mic'd so loud I think her voice could have been capable of cutting through metal.

Oh, I guess you've heard that we have Charlie Ham and we're going 9-3.

I'll take a job in government! Make it a cabinet position. Mom was from Prague so let's make it Chancellor of the Exchequer.

Thanks I'll be here all week. Try the Svickova!
