The Duke Blue Devils (2-0) host the Uconn Huskies (1-1) on Saturday afternoon. Duke defeated Northwestern in double overtime on the road last week, 26-20. Eli Pancol caught the game-winning touchdown pass from QB Maalik Murphy, and now the Blue Devils will look to make it three straight wins to start the season.
Murphy threw for 243 yards and three TDs in the win, while Jordan Moore finished with 11 catches and 121 receiving yards.
UConn defeated Merrimack 63-17, with QB Joe Fagnano finishing with an impressive 328 yards on 19 pass attempts.
Can Duke continue their winning ways, or will UConn come away with a surprising victory on the road?

Key Stats
Duke
QB Joe Fagnano has thrown for 477 yards this season. He also enters Saturday’s game with 6 TDs and one interception in the year. RB Durell Robinson has rushed for 128 yards on 17 attempts. He’s also rushed for 1 TD this season.
WR Skyler Bell leads the team with 246 yards on seven receptions. He has caught 1 TD this year. DL Brandon Kelly has stood out on defense, coming in with one sack, six tackles, and 1 TFL.
Duke is allowing only 214 yards per game of total offense and 11.5 points.
UConn
QB Maalik Murphy has thrown for 534 yards this season. He’s thrown for 5 TDs through the air, as well as 2 Interceptions. RB Star Thomas has rushed for 81 yards on 30 attempts. He’s yet to record a rushing touchdown this year.
WR Jordan Moore leads the team with 233 yards on 18 receptions. He hasn’t had any receiving touchdowns so far this season.
DE Vincent Anthony Jr. has been a bright spot on defense, coming in with two sacks, six tackles, and two tackles for loss. UConn averages 35 points against, and opponents have totaled 467 yards of total offense per game.
Prediction
Duke is better all-around, but their offense hasn’t looked convincing for the first two games. They only managed 26 points versus a weak Elon team, and even though they got the upset against Northwestern, the Blue Devils’ defense has to get a lot of credit. The combination of Duke’s strong defensive unit and their underperforming offense should lead to a lower-scoring affair on Saturday.
Final Pick
Under 48 (-110)
