[QUOTE="Madison Grant, post: 93322, member: 823"] I just gave the reasons why. 1) They had an extra week to prepare for us, just like we did for Miami. Bud Foster will have an extra week for them. 2) You do realize UVA was playing their backup QB against Duke two weeks ago? Duke has gotten a lot of breaks. 3) They are winning with superior execution right now. I'd argue that's a lot tougher to do than winning with superior talent. If the execution is off, the talent is still there. If the talent is missing, the execution will at some point misfire. Wake is the only team left on Duke's schedule that they are more talented than. Even Pitt- OL has two former 4 stars and a 5 star starting on it- is full of players who would have turned Duke down flat. I'd give Duke a 50/50 shot at winning the Coastal, but they are not the 'best team in the division'. Put a Clemson (us) or FSU (Miami) or Louisville on their schedule, and it's another L for them, and they likely wouldn't have much of a shot at the division. FWIW, we are a lot like Duke in that we have to execute because we're out-talented by most teams on our schedule. [/QUOTE]
