100% agree. And the weird thing is, I don’t think anybody was expecting it. It was a good call by Duke.

Not sure I loved those first two downs.
And then lose the timeout.
And then lose the timeout.
This officiating crew loves to throw flags. Goodness.
That and not being able to get 3pts before the half due to zero timeouts. Even 1 would’ve helped.
So you’ve got Houser completing almost everything…and you break out the wildcat???

Yeah, there was no need to double down on the cuteness there.
Which followed a blown up reverse.
Our strategy looks to be jumping on guys’ backs.
Mostly on the east grandstands...Its over 80 degrees and in the hot sun, that will wear on you...I imagine they're watching the game from the inside and come back out when the sun goes down...
Duke defense slightly improving, ILL, D not.
Glad we went for it… but such an odd choice of play calls to end that drive…
Poor Valentine got leveled.

Ugggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggh
That’s our 4th down play?
Welp
Not looking good now.
For as good as Lunney has been this game, he tried to show how he's the smartest guy in the room and screwed himself.
