By Duke Of Hoops – While the Duke Basketball team continues their week between games, I’m going to take this time to talk about the Duke Football team. The Blue Devils capped off their 100th season on the gridiron with one of their best and return to a bowl game on December 27th against Cincinnati in Charlotte, NC at the Belk Bowl. Support the team, program and coaches by buying your tickets to the game from the school’s official website. The showing of support by Duke fans will do wonders for the entire athletic department’s bottom line and will help make Duke Football a more enticing choice for future bowl games as the school continues to build a competitive football program. Even if you can’t go, consider purchasing a ticket or two to give to underprivileged children in and around Durham and/or Charlotte.

By Josh Evans – After a brutal 7 game stretch in which #2 Duke played 3 top 5 teams, Duke needed a much needed rest. They needed a rest so bad that Curry sat out.
