Related Topics: Duke Blue Devils football

The Duke football program is gearing up for a potentially season-altering matchup on Saturday against No. 11 Illinois at home. Duke took down FCS opponent Elon 45-17 in its opener, and now has a chance to make a serious statement with a marquee victory over one of the top teams in the Big 10. However, there were certainly a few areas of concern for the Blue Devils against the Phoenix, which will need to be cleaned up in order for the squad to take down a pesky Fighting Illini squad. Win, and Duke will almost definitely find itself in the AP Poll and be recognized as a true contender on a national scale.
