FB: Duke 34, Wake Forest 31

[peloton]

We can't have many wasted opportunities like that against Hartman & Co.

[cbarry]

Ironic that Wake plays “fast”, but when they do, they do the silly “delay” thing.

[peloton]

Not so fast my friend.

Yep...crapola.

[SouthernDukie]

Not so fast my friend.

Picked up the PI flag then missed an obvious personal foul, a shot to the head, on the very next play. Nice going, refs.

[CameronDuke]

Gotta do a better job of containing Hartman when he scrambles. He has 32 yards rushing now and has moved the sticks with his feet some.

[arnie]

It’s only getting worse. WF 8 of 12 on 3rd down.

[cbarry]

Duke DBs- Turn the heck around and watch the ball!

[cbarry]

It feels like after that dropped interception, all the momentum has been with WF.

We need a productive possession right here.

Agreed...it infuriates me sometimes.

[jgehtland]

What is this defense? Why are we choosing never to pressure hartman?

Duke can’t stop this QB. He is one of the best in the league.

[Luke102452]

You don’t pressure him he will pick you apart and that is exactly what is happening. You can’t pressure him with 3 down linemen

If the QB is going to carve you up with 5-15 yard passes anyway, why not blitz a bit; so what if we give up a big gain. They’re gonna score eventually if we do not change philosophy.

Defensive Line are not very fast when they have lost their blocker. Hartman is having a field day.

That’s what I said earlier. Gotta blitz.
Body language on the field is bad-
Duke looks lackadaisical, and WF looks full of energy.

Think that’s our 4th holding penalty. WF apparently doesn’t hold.

Nice pass and catch

[peloton]

What a laser throw by Riley and great catch (and lunge) for the 1st down!

[cbarry]

Clutch play there. Nice pass by Leonard, and Calhoun with a great effort to get the first down.

[SouthernDukie]

Nice pass and catch

That was big time. Possibly saved our bacon in this game.
