The Duke football program kicked off its 2025 season tonight, on August 28th, against FCS opponent Elon. After bringing back key returners and several elite transfer portal additions, there was a lot of hype riding on Duke football heading into the 2025 campaign after a 9-4 season in the first under head coach Manny Diaz. And well, the first half of action wasn't exactly what the Blue Devil faithful were looking for. After the first 30 minutes, the Blue Devils are tied 10-10 with Elon, giving the Phoenix their first halftime lead over an FBS opponent in program history.
