The Duke football program has now put itself in a position to compete atop the ACC standings after securing its second straight victory, a 38-3 blowout win at Syracuse. Duke is now one of three ACC squads that have gotten off to a 2-0 start to conference play, and although any at-large hopes for a College Football Playoff spot are out the window, bringing the first ACC Championship to Durham since 1989 is still very much in the cards. The Blue Devils will deal with one of the lighter conference schedules for the remainder of the 2025 campaign, and there should be legitimate belief that the program can win out for the rest of the season.
