You can feel it coming by the crispness in the air.Was about to say, sure startin’ to feel like dick kickin’ season
I don't bet but -7.5 looked like a good betDown to -6.5
Exactly. The same Illinois team that just got boat raced by Indiana.Lol Angeli isn't worth 10pts to the line I promise you.
Duke is just one of those teams the hedge fund type bettors love. Moved the ball vs Illinois, killed themselves. But I mean ya, that doesn't look like such a good L anymore.
At the risk of getting flamed, our defense did give up over 500 yards, including 363 to a not overly accurate Klubnick. Mensah has been very accurate and Duke will be a challenge to shut down. We’ll need Collins to be close to Angeli to get the w.Duke didn't look impressive on either end yesterday. If our defense is clicking like it was yesterday, Duke is not going to put up many points. Even if we are minus 2 in the turnover battle, we should have more than enough points to win it

I guess if you take out that he threw an 18 yard touchdown to give us a 20 point lead, so after that the absolute critical thing was to not make a mistake (turnover) that gave Clemson a chance - that would make sense.
I don’t take much positive or negative from the fourth quarter offensively. Play calling was extremely conservative, and the main goal for Collins was “don’t screw this up”. Maybe Collins will be good, maybe he’ll be terrible - anyone that thinks anything in the fourth quarter qualifies as evidence either way is reaching. (For clarity, I don’t think the 18 yard TD is evidence either).
I hope you grabbed it at +7.5. Seven is a huge key number.Down to -6.5
Not flaming, but once a game reaches close out status, you can't really look at yards allowed. They played a quarter and a half in hurry up, and we were playing softer to keep from getting beaten over the top. We were happy to give 7 yard catches and make the tackle. We were essentially trading yards for elapsed time.At the risk of getting flamed, our defense did give up over 500 yards, including 363 to a not overly accurate Klubnick.

Won't we get ejected for that?We're going to kick Duke right in the dick.
And despite the 2nd half yards, they still only scored once.Not flaming, but once a game reaches close out status, you can't really look at yards allowed.

thats a lot of yds that went no where
What really helped them was volume of drives because we didnt do much to avoid giving the game away
they had 3 drives over 45 yds
we had 5 drives over 45 yds before Steve got hurt
True, and in this defensive situation, short completions are actually PREFERABLE to incompletions. You let them catch short passes that take 20 seconds.Not flaming, but once a game reaches close out status, you can't really look at yards allowed.

I just love dick kickin season. We orange fans don’t get nearly enough of that season. Bring it onWas about to say, sure startin’ to feel like dick kickin’ season
If I was the type to bet on college football I would bet on that line. Duke would not have stayed with either Tennessee or Clemson, Nixon, Fran, and Erob will find a way to make Duke wish they hadn't been on our schedule this year.I don't bet but -7.5 looked like a good bet
