Duke Game Thread...

[FloridaFan]

The wind is obviously messing with the punts...interesting that DeVito has thrown a couple of long passes into that wind.

He has the arm strength to throw anything is seems

 

[OttoinGrotto]

It's like we used up all of our sure handed interceptions last season.

This season we drop every single one of them.

It's amazing.

 

[JoeSU]

I really don’t like our 3rd down (& medium) play calling.

 

[syrBossHogg]

Our defense looks so much better even with the yards given up

 

[NineOneSeven]

This second quarter has been bad

Near the end of the half with the clock running down., Syracuse runs up the middle of the field.
Near the end of the half with the clock running down, Duke is throwing quick passes, mainly toward the sidelines.

 

[FRANKIEFAN]

I’d save those timeouts for a miss.

They watched film of the first.

 

[NineOneSeven]

Why would you call a timeout?

 

[OttoinGrotto]

So if I'm Duke and I hit this field goal, I'm attempting the onside. With the way this wind is, even if you don't recover, pretty doubtful we can get a reasonable field goal, and it's been challenging throwing downfield.

Yes. This is the type of game where you’re just coming out of the bathroom right now because you left your seat a few minutes before half, and you have to convince yourselves to go back in there to your seats for the second half.

 

[FllCrtPrss]

Do teams ever miss long field goals against us? I know the wind makes the distance easy to get but still college kickers usually kick it wide a lot.

 

[CuseLegacy]

Maybe we will do better in the second half when we play into the wind.

 

[JoeSU]

Doesn’t our playbook include a quick pop pass to a TE, or crossing route to a WR?

 

[SUforme]

TY offense for completely shutting down looking to go to the half already.

 

[FloridaFan]

That’s it. No more Riley returns please

 

[All4SU]

Riley is really struggling.

 

[Dcuse]

That field goal totally on Melifanwu. He’s had a horrible half.

 

[OttoinGrotto]

Ah, Riley.

 

[OrangeDW]

Doesn’t our playbook include a quick pop pass to a TE, or crossing route to a WR?

All evidence points to: absolutely not.

 

[SUforme]

TY offense for completely shutting down looking to go to the half already.

Accidental quote.

 

[Vorony]

Has Riley returned anything of significance this year?

 

[crales44]

Riley has been awful this year. Another drop on special teams. We have to have better options than him.

 

[OrangeDW]

I miss Brisley Estime.

 

[orangeinohio]

Asking for no reason at all - Who is Riley's backup on punts and kickoffs?

Nevermind, everything looks great.
