Syracuse 24, Duke 38: Defense falters as Blue Devils run over Orange
Rich Barnes-USA TODAY Sports The first three weeks of the season were spent praising Tony White’s new 3-3-5 scheme that had energized the Syracuse Orange defense. However, cracks in run stuffing against Georgia Tech were blown into gaping holes by the Duke Blue Devils as former Clemson nemesis Chase Brice handed the ball off to multiple hundred yard rushers in a 38-24 ‘Cuse loss.
Syracuse began the game kicking off to Duke, and the Blue Devils hit the ground running, literally. Two big plays (a 20 yard run and a 10 yard pass) moved the visitors into ‘Cuse territory, and after a big 3rd down conversion, Brice found Jalon Calhoun for a 26 yard touchdown to make it 7-0.
