After a very "meh" first half offensively for Duke football in the season opener, Manny Diaz was able to calm his guys down, leading to an explosion on offense in the second 30 minutes.
The Duke football program kicked off its 2025 season on August 28th at home against FCS opponent Elon. After an offseason filled with high expectations coming off a 9-4 2024 season in the first under head coach Manny Diaz, Duke fans were excited to see the new pieces on the field for the first time.
