Very hard to win a game when you have 3 trips inside your opponents 10 yard line that don't result in points...

I think I saw that movie once or twice in the 90s

Extremely fun game to watch - hope the Blue Elkos win.

I know it's already been stated but Elko has done a tremendous job at Duke. Hard to root against him and what he is building there.

Duke doesn't look all that great but Clemson just looks like they don't want it. There was almost no effort on that two point conversion play by the Clemson corner.

Maybe we can snag ELKO after Jimbo retires with a few NCs

Interesting start to week 1 if this holds out. Not sure what the bigger story would be….

This game (if duke can hold on)

Or unconventional Colorado winning their season opener against #17 TCU

Love the way that Duke back runs. Keeps his shoulders over his feet and has great balance to absorb hits. Never gets caught leaning too far over in the hole and getting tripped up with soft contact.

Duke will be the bigger story as a whole. Prime is good at marketing himself and team though so they'll be hot until they drop a game against a better team than overrated TCU

Half the talent as Clemson…also vs a team that is spread ….. he is playing 4 down and being sound on defense…we replaced him with Durkin 3-2-6 two gaps linebackers and ask the d line to be superhero's every down… I'm sick to my stomach watching this.

Gotta wonder when Jimbo will cut durkin since he sees that bringing in petrino works

I'll take the old man over GR after week 1. This offense is trash and add is self inflicted mistakes it's a going to be a blowout.

I definitely expected the Riley/Klubnik combo to look considerably better than this.

Clemsoning back?

Durkin should have been canned last year.

Clemson has fumbled the ball twice inside the 10 yard line. Missed two FGs. This game would be very different if Clemson didn't give the ball away on their own.
