Through 3 Quarters

The Duke Blue Devils were the heavy favorites here for a reason. Three quarters in and their offense has really been able to impose its will, dominating the Charlotte 49ers 37-13 three quarters in.

Duke has been relying on RB Deon Jackson, who has rushed for two TDs and 101 yards on ten carries, and RB Mataeo Durant, who has rushed for two TDs and 104 yards on 12 carries. Jackson has put himself on the highlight reel with a 65-yard TD scramble in the first quarter. Rumph II was a defensive playmaker as well with a menacing three sacks.

The Blue Devils' lead is the biggest they have had this season going into the fourth quarter.
