DURHAM – Duke returns to Brooks Field at Wallace Wade Stadium on Saturday when it hosts North Carolina A&T.
Kickoff is set for 6 p.m., and the game will be broadcast live on ACC Network Extra.
The Blue Devils lead the all-time series 2-0 heading into Saturday’s contest. During the last meeting a year ago, Duke was powered by a three-touchdown performance from running back Mataeo Durant and two rushing scores by quarterback Gunnar Holmberg in a 45-17 victory. Quarterback Jordan Moore accounted for Duke’s final touchdown when he scampered nine yards for his first career score. The Blue Devils’ six rushing touchdowns matched the most in a single game over the past 25 years (Charlotte, 2020 and Virginia, 2010).
In Duke’s last outing at Northwestern, seniors Jalon Calhoun and Eli Pancol both topped 100 yards receiving with 108 and 106 yards, respectively, to become the first duo since T.J. Rahming (190) and Anthony Nash Jr. (104) did so against Virginia in 2015.
After scoring on its opening drive against Northwestern, Duke is now 12-1 when scoring a touchdown on its opening drive since the start of the 2017 season.
Saturday’s ACCNX broadcast will feature Mike Morgan, Mike Glennon and Jaylyn Johnson on the call. The game can also be heard on the Blue Devil Sports Network from LEARFIELD through the Varsity app or goduke.com.
