Duke football receiver inching closer to making major history for the program

The Duke football program picked up a huge 46-45 victory on the road over Clemson on November 1st, and wide receiver Cooper Barkate was a huge part of the team's success, as he has been all season. As we enter the closing stretch of the regular season, Barkate is continuing to inch closer to becoming the first Duke Blue Devil to go for 1,000 receiving yards in a season since Jamison Crowder in 2014. The Blue Devils are now 5-3 overall and 4-1 in conference play, keeping themselves in position to bring the first ACC Championship to Durham since 1989.
