With under a week away until the Duke football program begins its 2025 season against Elon on August 28th, the Blue Devil faithful are anxiously awaiting the team taking the field for the first time. There are high expectations for the program this year, as Duke is coming off a 9-4 season in the first under head coach Manny Diaz, just the fourth season of nine or more wins in program history.
The Blue Devils have legitimate aspirations to compete at the top of the ACC and fight for a College Football Playoff spot, and with a relatively light conference slate compared to the rest of the ACC, it's certainly doable.
