No. 20 Duke routed 45-7 by No. 1 FSU for ACC title
Duke's first trip to the ACC championship game was a dud.
The No. 20 Blue Devils couldn't stop Heisman Trophy contender Jameis Winston and couldn't do much when it counted against Florida State's tough defense in a 45-7 loss Saturday night that snapped their eight-game winning streak.
Winston threw for three touchdowns and ran for another to give the Seminoles ...

Video: Duke Safety Dwayne Norman Was Ejected For Targeting For This Hit In The End Zone
We knew we couldn’t get through all of today’s conference championship football games without at least one ejection for targeting. Late in the ACC Championship Game between Florida State and Duke, Jameis Winston threw a strike to tight end Nick O’Leary in the end zone. O’Leary would have caught the pass for a touchdown, but Duke safety Dwayne Norman came streaking in and...

Alex Murphy to transfer from Duke
Alex Murphy has decided to transfer from Duke at the end of the semester. Murphy has averaged 6.6 minutes per game in five of the Blue Devils' nine games this season. Murphy was a four-star recruit in the class of 2011. Rodney Hood and Jabari Parker each average over 30 minutes per game at the position Murphy would play. Murphy figures to be a highly coveted transfer.
Alex Murphy (Probably) Transferring From Duke
According to a source at the Duke Chronicle, Duke Sophomore forward Alex Murphy is going to transfer at the end of the fall semester. Murphy played in just about 6 minutes per game last year for the Blue Devils, and with Jabari Parker and Rodney Hood on campus this year, playing time was going to be even less plentiful. He has received the dreaded DNP-CD in four of Duke's last...

Duke Blue Devils and Those Black Uniforms ...
Anyone who has read any of my stuff over time, knows that I have a long-standing chip on my shoulder about those BLACK Duke uniforms.
The latest installment was on Friday night, in the Pre-Season NIT Final, in Madison Square Garden, against Arizona.
Arizona wore their white uniforms, as they were the “home” team by virtue of their better ranking. Duke, being the “away...

No. 24 Duke, Cutcliffe go from cellar to ACC title game
CHAPEL HILL, N.C. -- The movie version of the 2013 Duke Blue Devils -- Coastal Division Champions, 10-2 and 6-2 in the ACC, No. 24 in the country and rising -- would be a pretty good one.
The lasting image of head coach David Cutcliffe being carried off the field at Kenan Stadium by two of his senior defensive linemen would likely be the way the movie ends, soaked in Gatorade yet...

WATCH: Jabari Parker makes defensive stop, dunks on other end
Jabari Parker continues to make impressive plays for the Duke Blue Devils. In a close game with East Carolina on Tuesday night, Parker made a defensive play on one end, then took it coast-to-coast and finished with a slam. Not as impressive as Parker’s dunk against Kansas if I don’t say. So who you got: Parker, Andrew Wiggins or Julius Randle?
