Last weekend, Duke’s undersized defensive line struggled against Miami’s extremely physical offensive line, allowing Hurricanes’ star running back Lamar Miller to exploit holes en-route to 147 rushing yards and two touchdowns. The Blue Devils run defense, which allowed the Hurricanes to accumulate 265 total yards on the ground, will be tested again this weekend against Virginia and their own star running back, junior Perry Jones.

After dropping last weekend’s game against Virginia, the Blue Devils entered this week of practice understanding that they would again be ineligible to appear in a postseason bowl game. And given Duke’s ever-growing injury report—head coach David Cutcliffe estimated that 16 starters have missed time with injuries this season—it seems fair to wonder how the Blue Devils will approach their matchup with Georgia Tech on Saturday, at 12:30 p.m. at Wallace Wade Stadium.

Monday, the Blue Devils (9-0) fought hard in a close 61-58 victory against a previously unbeaten, nationally ranked Texas A&M squad.
