Rickie Collins

if you're duke and you win the coin toss, you give the ball to syracuse and make him beat you

if you're rickie and the orange, you make them regret that decision right away and start 7-0

Ask Dabo how that worked out for him.

If you're any team and you win the toss, you defer to the second half anyway. The bigger question is whether, if we win the toss, we take the ball to get Ricky in the game. I would not, but I would not have tried the onside kick either...

Fran has said he doesn’t have a fixed plan of always deferring or taking the ball.

We have Nixon. He’ll have a gameplan ready that is perfect for Collins. Look at all the wrinkles he pulled out against Clemson when the game threads at times were like, wth are we doing on offense. Myself included. I have no doubt we’ll have a plan that makes sense.

Let’s also remember. Collins came in and also didn’t lose us the game. I was worried Clemson might find a way back into it. Imagine an INT returned for a TD. That would have potentially been a huge momentum booster for Clemson. That didn’t happen. Let’s see how he handles a full game with a real week of prep.

We also thought 6 months ago that Collins would be our starter sooooooooooo

I don't understand why deferring is always the correct choice. I would want the ball and the lead in certain games if I'm confident in my first drive game script.

With an inexperienced QB starting this week, I'd defer. Give yourself halftime to make some adjustments if needed. I expect him to be better in the second half than he was in the first. Although Duke can adjust too.
