North Carolina vs. Duke Live updates Score, results, highlights, for Saturday's NCAA Football game
Live scores, highlights and updates from the North Carolina vs. Duke football game
After a three-game homestand, the Duke Blue Devils will be on the road. Duke and the North Carolina Tar Heels will face off in an ACC battle at noon ET on Saturday at Kenan Memorial Stadium. The Blue Devils will be strutting in after a win while UNC will be stumbling in from a loss.
Duke strolled past the Kansas Jayhawks with points to spare last week, taking the game 52-33.
Meanwhile, UNC might have drawn first blood against the Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets last week, but it was Georgia Tech who got the last laugh. The Tar Heels have to be aching after a bruising 45-22 defeat to the Yellow Jackets. UNC was probably expecting an easy victory given their 14.5-point advantage in the point spread, but Georgia Tech gave them no such satisfaction. No one had a standout game offensively for UNC, but they got scores from WR Josh Downs and TE Kamari Morales.
The Blue Devils' win brought them up to 3-1 while UNC's loss pulled them down to 2-2. A pair of defensive stats to keep an eye on: Duke is 196th worst in the nation in passing touchdowns allowed, with seven on the season. The Tar Heels have experienced some struggles of their own as they are stumbling into the matchup with the 209th most rushing touchdowns allowed in the nation, having given up eight on the season. It's possible one of these Achilles' heels will wind up tripping the losing team up.
