Game Thread: #23 Duke vs VT, 3:30est on ESPNU

[wildturkey]

Duke gets off to a good start with a TD drive in which we couldn't get off the field on 3rd down, continuing a trend all season (really for the last couple of years).

But Brewer and Bucky respond on their first drive with a TD to tie the game

 

[wildturkey]

Duke immediately gets a TD within 5 plays. Defense is fucking terrible

 

[wildturkey]

Now we're juggling QBs. Motley comes in for two running plays, Brewer in for a 3rd down throw that picks up a first down, Motley back in but has to burn a TO because he can't get the play off in time. Fucking Loeffler.

VT Football: Gets 1st and 10 on opponents 15, loses 12 yards on a WR screen. FML

 

[wildturkey]

21-10 Duke. TD via Bud's overaggression and then on the kickoff Greene takes the kick out of the endzone and is tackled on the 5. This team is so poorly coached its laughable.

Edit: And on offense, McMillian is CLEARLY the only RB on the roster worth a darn yet they keep giving Rogers and Edmunds carries for some mysterious reason. SMDH

Long TD drive that chews up most of the 3rd to cut the lead to 21-16. Failed 2 pt.

 

[wildturkey]

OMFG!

We went for an onside kick and missed it with 27 seconds left in the 3rd. Duke has the ball in our territory now! WTF! FUCKING SHITHEAD BEAMER

 

[hokiehi21]

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

 

[wildturkey]

Motherfucking shit! I don't care if Duke gets stopped here and the result is no points. Fire Beamer now. Just get it over with. So fucking stupid. He can kick a fucking onside kick in that situation but won't go for it on 4th and 1 in our territory. Seriously, get him out. I'm so pissed now that even if we miraculously win this game, I won't enjoy it.

 

[wildturkey]

Duke has to put after the onside kick, we immediately go 3 and out and punt the ball a measly 30ish yards. Duke is like one pass from a FG

 

[wildturkey]

Holy shit, this is nuts. Bucky catches a 23 yard TD on 4th and 1 (2 mins left). And then after two PI calls on the conversion, McMillian ties it up with a run.

 

[wildturkey]

Duke misses a 46 yarder with 1 min left. We've got one TO left. We might have a shot at stealing this in regulation

 

[wildturkey]

Motherfucker! We're wasting so much damn time! We wasted like 30 seconds doing jack shit.

Slye is gonna try a FG from literally midfield because we wasted so much fucking time

 

[ckhokie]

Our coaching staff is full on retard.

Hats off to the players who have overcome some HORRIBLE coaching, but this is inexcusable. Blow this fucker up. Fuck every coach on our staff.

 

[wildturkey]

Predictably, the FG wasn't even close. Duke runback tackled, headed to overtime. We seriously could have had a real shot at this had the coaches had any damn clue how to manage the clock. We had the ball with 1 minute left. After a McMillian first down with 50 seconds left, we squandered all but 2 seconds and got nothing. Just throw a fucking Hail Mary. Beamer is seriously retarded. Fire him

 

[wildturkey]

Duke FG good in OT. Can VT respond? At this point, I expect Beamer to take a knee four straight downs

 

[wildturkey]

Slye kick good. The insanity continues. If you're a Duke fan, how bad would you feel if you lost this game?

 

[wildturkey]

TD Bucky in 2OT. Duke gets the ball. Foster's bunch just has to hold on. 3 years ago, this would be cake. Now? Hold on to your butts!

 

[wildturkey]

Aaaaaand Duke scores.

Trips it is

 

[wildturkey]

GL stand forces a Duke FG. Now its our turn
