FB: Duke 30, Northwestern 23

[SavDukeGrad]

What a great start by Duke! Let’s go! Keep it up!

I didn’t see it, but if the offense makes a substitute then the defense is allowed time to do the same.

Interesting - I haven’t noticed the ref holding up the O like that

The Northwestern QB juggles the snap then completes a bomb down the sideline. Northwestern is inside the red zone now and looking to be in business shortly on the scoreboard.

I would love to see our rank on third and long on defense. Gotta be one of the worst at that. D has been playing great but gave up to third and long conversions. Third and 15 is just ridiculous. Hold ‘em to FG here and all is ok.

Who are these guys - wow

We forced a turnover😀😀😀😀

[peloton]

Way to go, Lummie!

[JasonEvans]

First takeaway by Duke in 563 days!!

Note- above figure may not be entirely accurate but is not entirely inaccurate either

Duke recovers a fumble inside the 10 yard line!

Duke ball!

The shutout is still intact!

[YmoBeThere]

Wow, nice start by both the offense and the defense.

[paris95]

We forced a turnover😀😀😀😀

Wahoo! Been a while since we’ve seen one of those!

[SavDukeGrad]

Way to go, Lummie!

I was holding my breath - afraid Lummie may have touched his face mask.

Great fumble & recovery though!

[DU82]

Wahoo! Been a while since we’ve seen one of those!

No, the Wahoos win later tonight.

No, the Wahoos win later tonight.

Yessir! Giddyup! Now let’s go bury these guys.

Holmberg may throw for 350 yards today …

“At one point in the first half the Northwestern quarterback was hit and dropped the ball on the ground. The Duke players all jumped on top of it. I was very confused what was going on as it was not something I had seen in a very long time for a duke defense. The announcers informed me that this was a good thing for Duke and I should be happy about it. So I was. That said, I was still quite confused as to what had happened as it was almost entirely new to me as a Duke fan.”

[CameronDuke]

Go for it!

[peloton]

Like the call going for it on 4th & 2, Coach!

[CameronDuke]

Cutcliffe rolls the dice. Move the sticks!

[paris95]

And we move the pile and make a hole on fourth down. Nicely done OL

[peloton]

Beautiful scramble, pass, and completion!
