DURHAM, N.C. (AP) Stopping No. 20 Georgia Tech means finding a way to at least slow down the Yellow Jackets' ground game.

It's time for Duke to give it a try.

The Blue Devils (2-1) are allowing just 93 yards per game on the ground and - if not for one big play they gave up last week - would have a top-10 run defense.

Eight-year Georgia Tech coach Paul Johnson calls it ''probably their best defense since I've been here.
