Does anyone have a list of Duke wins against top five opponents in the modern era?

I believe our best win was beating #7 Clemson in 1989.

College GameDay stinks - they just brought up the play that shouldn't have counted. Still too soon.

Did they by any chance mention that it shouldn’t have counted, or that the incompetent refs were suspended for three games because of their blunders? Nah, I didn’t think so.

So, pretty short list.

Last top 5 win was over #4 Navy in 1960.

I specified "modern era" which is undefined. But your answer and Bob's answer certainly underline my question/point.

Let's go make modern history!

With Don "Ace" Altman at QB! My Tar Heel Neighbor's stepfather.

Omg I’m about to turn this game off or at least mute it if these announcers mention one more time how fantastic of a quarterback play that lucky tipped td reception was.

It was the aflac trivia question- who scored.

Here we come!

They didn't give the actual answer - they gave a player's name but the correct answer was the refs.

 

[Mtn.Devil.91.92.01.10.15]

Let's go get that lead.

 

[Mtn.Devil.91.92.01.10.15]

Let's go get that lead.

Thank you!

 

[Mtn.Devil.91.92.01.10.15]

Let's keep the lead going into the half.... Then extend! Make history!!!

Ugh — was looking at that 20.5 spread at the casino book — what was screaming pick Duke against the spread. Then I got distracted by the Cazy Rich Asians slots and then craps and forgot to make the pick. Don’t gamble, kids.

Yes that was a great play by the Duke defender, with an unlucky outcome.

 

[AZLA]

Uh that was a fumble should have been Duke’s ball on the other end of field — quick whistle

Can't complain about the halftime situation. I've got a vibe...

Miami needs a friggin payback for the Halloween nightmare. Let's give it to em.
