    Or blown communication? You usually don't leave a guy in zone coverage like that during a blitz, though. No way for me to know how many players were supposed to blitz through the A gap, but I'm sure that was blown coverage, and there's no one else in the zone where Tatum was. I think everyone...

    I think Biggers and Van der Berg were side by side--at least, that's how they started. Here are the highlights For those interested, the A gap blitz is around 4:15. Efford was in the QB's face, and it was nearly a blind throw in the middle--completely uncovered, though. Here is the...

    Tech @ UNC (Oct. 12th) - Noon Kickoff

    Transitive property not helping a ton. We were favored over Duke by 8.5, and won by 10 (at home). Duke beat UNC by 1. That’s basically a 7 point spread minus 3 for home field.

    A trend I have noticed.

    I’ve noticed that we lose when Chris Cotter does the play by play. I’m gonna start basing my picks on the play by play announcers

    Offensive Play-Calling

    Duke was trying to time the snap for most of the game. We're telegraphing multiple things, and it's probably responsible for our two loses. We're aware of some of it, because King changed his cadence and we pulled them offsides. It's the snap count, it's the kind of play, and sometimes it's...

    Timing was fine. Either Efford wasn't supposed to rush, or Tatum failed to cover the TE, and I think it was the latter.

    I think you mean Bailey Stockton, who had one catch for 18 yards. Some off our passes were to check downs. I'm wouldn't be surprised to see Duke win four more games, and three seems pretty likely.

    Yes, Biggers played.

    Some big plays. In particular, a pass interference allowing Duke to score their first TD, Star Thomas tripping and failing to pick up a 4th down conversion, Tatum playing zone on a blitz instead of man, and giving up a huge TD, and Haynes making the catch for a TD that he missed earlier. Pyron...

    That was on purpose. Duke pins their ears back and goes. We made them defend sideline to sideline. They have a very good defense. That was a good win. They're more solid than I thought.

    Duke/GT 10/5 set for an 8pm kick on ACC Network

    There’s a different preview at https://www.collegefootballinsiders.com/matchup_preview/?team1=Duke&team2=Georgia%20Tech. They predict (roughly) Duke 30-GT 24. Short version, for the strength on strength matchup, they think the Duke defense is better than our offense. For the weakness on...

    Duke/GT 10/5 set for an 8pm kick on ACC Network

    I've probably posted SP+ and FEI as much as anyone here, but with our weaknesses against the pass, we make opposing QBs look like Tom Brady. I don’t think we can just look at one or two numbers. How we match up matters. We need to find weaknesses to take advantage of. Our offense is really...

    How bad does Brock Glenn have to play for people to want DJU back? It could happen.

    2024 offseason

    It might have worked if he passed like Magic, dribbled like Nash, and or shot like Curry. Stars gotta execute.
