It didn’t start off very pretty as Duke scored 21 points in the first quarter, but Virginia came back in the second stanza and the game stands Duke 24, Virginia 21.
Virginia ran a fake field goal in the second quarter as Robert Randolph ran it in for a 20 yard touchdown on a perfect trick play. Marc Verica has struggled early, and he threw a horrific interception within Virginia’s own 20 yard line, but he did get better as the game progressed. Verica hit Keith Payne on a 9 yard TD to bring it to 21-24 Duke at the half.
Both of Duke’s QB’s have played well so far for the Blue Devils. Starter Sean Renfree has a TD pass, and backup Brandon Connette has two rushing TD’s for Duke in the first -half.
Keith Payne leads the Hoos in rushing with 11 carries for 81 yards and a rushing touchdown. Dontrelle Inman has looked great for Virginia, and he has 5 catches for 105 yards.
Go Hoos. Please don’t lose to Duke three times in a row! Duke? Really?
