“Daniel Jones played as well as a quarterback can play. What a tremendous effort.”

»Coach David Cutcliffe

Q. A question about Daniel Jones, what do you see getting ready for him, do you think he's an NFL-type quarterback next year?

COACH DABO SWINNEY: I don't think there's any doubt about it. To be honest with you, I haven't really studied him much prior to this game. Just because we haven't played Duke in a while. And just haven't studied him a lot closely. But as I watched him, man, oh man, not only is he going to be a pro, he's going to be a high pick. This guy can flat out play, incredible presence in the pocket. He's big and strong. He can fly. You know, he just pulls away from people. He rushed for 180 yards last week and can make every throw. He makes some really, really tight throws against contested coverage. And I can't imagine that he's not going to be one of the top quarterbacks to be drafted.

Thanks @tomcat1 ! And you too! Go Pack!

Thanks Man! My Pack has a pretty good record in recent bowl games but since they are the underdog in this one against Texas A & M I'm not too sure about this one since they took Clemson to the wire.

Speaking of Clemson, I've got to cheer for them to win it all since I'm an ACC fan, with the exception of that team in Chapel Hill, even though I think BAMA will win it all.

yea, but remember that Wolfpack teams seem to do pretty well against Jimbo Fisher teams. The ACC is sold short when it comes to SEC, Big 12, and B1G teams. Duke is a dog to Temple but it has a lot to do with the way they played against Wake Forest.

I hear you man concerning Wake Forest and if we hadn't laid an egg against them at home we might even be in a bigger bowl. I guess Wake Forest is the official North Carolina champion this year.
