On its face, a 41-7 win against now 0-4 UConn does not say much more about Duke than what was already known: It is a talented team that deserves its No. 18 ranking. However, even in lopsided games that are never truly in question, a team goes through tense moments and exhibits characteristics that can be extrapolated to a larger context.
On the road for the first time this season, No. 18 Duke took it to UConn early at Rentschler Field in East Hartford, Conn. At the halftime break Saturday afternoon, the Blue Devils lead the Huskies 27-0:
