Is anyone looking to sell 4 homecoming game tickets. I checked on most the sites and the availability for 4 is pretty much gone. Yup, that’s on me for not buying earlier. Just hoping I can find some here.
Think we are all pretty hyped about the jump to FBS. Obviously this sub is pretty small. But is anyone else out there open to have more game day/post discussions on here? Feel like it’s hard to find any forums outside of fellow alums. I just found this sub and think we could get something going. Also 21-16.

RT @CapeCodDuke: I learned a long time ago never to complain about a win. Winning is hard. It’s also hard to have empathy for an opponent in a chippy game. @drewpainter90 did both yesterday. End of the game on a kickoff he went over to check on an injured W&M player down on the turf. #GoDukes

Takeaways:
- The Dukes struggled this week to put up similar rushing numbers in comparison to their routing of Morehead state, but their passing game was unstoppable with Cole Johnson throwing for 300+ yards along with 4 touchdowns with no interceptions.
- The defense continued to impose their willing on the opposing teams rushing game, limiting the Black bears to 75 yards on the ground for an average 2 yards/carry.
- Antwane Wells Jr. had his first stat-heavy game of the year, racking up 150+ receiving yards to go with a pair of touchdowns, he will continue to be an integral part of this offense's success.
- Over the past two games, we have seen how the Dukes were able to perform without key starters on both offense and defense (#3 Mike Greene, #31 Percy Agyei-Obese). With these players coming back from injury in the coming weeks, we should expect even more dominant performances.
Next Week's Opponent: Weber State
After leaving last Saturday’s game in the 2nd quarter due to injury, One of the top NFL prospects in the FCS will now undergo knee surgery that will take him out for the rest of the season. The All-American’s absence will be apparent this season, but this is also an opportunity for some younger players to fill the void.
