Duke Men’s Basketball was able to get a victory on the road in world famous Phog Allen Fieldhouse, and Duke Football got the win in Charlottesville over the weekend. We recap both wins on Episode 864!
We begin with the basketball, as Duke closed out the preseason with a tough win over the Jayhawks. We’re excited about how the guys were able to battle through the test and get the win, but there are also some lessons to be learned. Big Pat was amazing on the day and we saw the return of Caleb Foster to the floor. We also discuss the fact that the freshmen played like freshmen, but this experience will help them as the season begins in just over a week.
We then shift to the football in what was a wild victory over Virginia. Duke overcame several obstacles, including a Walker Eget injury, a missed extra point, and struggles moving the football on offense. But they got the win thanks to Nate Sheppard throwing a TD and then the defense sealing the game with an interception. We discuss all the wildness that leads to Duke moving to 5-2 on the season.
