[QUOTE="Augusta_Jacket, post: 901815, member: 1191"] I still think this game is a solid win for us. Duke is benefitting from perception based solely on their record alone. Going into the UVA game, Duke was ranked 82nd in OFEI and 101st in DFEI as opposed to 92 and 100 respectively for GT. The difference is in who they played to get that ranking. Dukes offense was ranked 82nd after facing the 76, 98, and 125 ranked DFEIs. GT faced the 9, 27, and 28th ranked DFEIs prior to 10th ranked DFEI Pitt this last weekend. Dukes DFEI ranking (101) is even less impressive considering they faced Temple (127 OFEI) and Northwestern (97 OFEI). They did play a Kansas team ranked 21st in OFEI, but they lost that game. GT's opponents prior to Pitt (55 OFEI) are ranked 7, 35, and 51st. It's easy to simply say 4-1 team is almost certain to beat a 2-3 team, but it's also lazy. Nothing on Duke's resume so far really impresses me. Had we played Dukes schedule we'd likely be 4-1 right now as well. [ATTACH type="full"]13241[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
