Everyone who is questioning Duke or saying, ‘they’re just a basketball school’ may want to review tape on the Blue Devils. Forget about the stats because, if anything, they are misleading about both teams. If there is one thing you can take away from Duke taking on Notre Dame it’s that college football has and is changing. Frankly, it’s leaving us with a bit of a smirk on our faces.
Will and Jim welcome Conor O’Neill, the Publisher of Devils Illustrated to the podcast (subscribe) to sift through the trash talk, the wonky stats and share gut feelings about this game. Former Irish DC Mike Elko who took over the reins as head coach in Durham has turned the program rather quickly. This is his second season and the Blue Devils are among the Top 25 teams in the nation.

The question is, do they have enough talent and depth to give the Irish a run for the money? Notre Dame fans, in true form, don’t think much of Duke….as a football team. According to some, they’re ‘mediocre’. O’Neill shares the players and positions that are anything but and will be more than a handful.

You’ll get a good feel for what the Duke offense offers behind QB Riley Leonard and a three-headed running back room (there’s more) and why O’Neill believes this game may be a battle for supremacy on the ground first before looking for cracks in the opposing secondary.
Strengths and weaknesses, you’ll get a feel for each team and how that may play out.
