As the Blue Devils move ever closer to bowl eligibility

Duke was held to three points in the second half but having outscored Georgia Tech 38-14 in the first it didn’t much matter. The Blue Devils eased up a bit in the second half, winning 41-23 to move to 4-2 on the season.

Georgia Tech showed some brief signs of being competitive, including an outstanding drive to start the fourth quarter and playing hard until the very last play, but Duke was by far the better team Saturday.

Jim will be along soon with his take from Wallace Wade.
