When was the last time Duke was a 10 point favorite against an ACC team?

Wake in 1994?

This is exactly the kind of game Duke loses. No more loose attitude, every mistake heavily scrutinized, expectations to dominate. Looking ahead to the possible Coastal Division title game with Miami. Loss.

 

[aiw]

Probably

Miami at Duke (+3)
Duke (-5) at Wake

So many years of watching Duke football leave me with the inevitable feeling that we lose this game. Just not allowed to reach potential.

Well, considering I feel like the team would have been 7-1 if not 8-0 right now without Boone's injury, maybe we've already not reached potential? Maybe we've gotten that part out of the way?

(That was my first attempt at a real post on this board. How did I do? Did I spell the quarterback's name right? The quarterback is the ball-throwy guy, right?)

 

[aiw]

I was confused for a moment

 

[rome8180]

So was I.

In a bizarre turn of events, that was probably RealLhys, a huge Duke Football fan.

I feel that way too about this game, but in most of those years, there was really no potential to reach.

Yup.

First time I've been nervous before a Duke football game in a long time.
