The announcer said the game was a sellout. If it is, they didn't come. The entire upper deck is essentially empty. As I recall, we set a record for our game with Clemson; it was packed. Of course, A&M is a long way from Atlanta, and Duke has a rather small following. And we and Clemson were both fairly close. But still ... there's a lot of empty seats.

And ESPN says A&M is only a 4 point favorite according to their power rating. Probably should be more like 40.

Duke is laying wood right now on the Manz and Evans.

Sumlin is going to have to field a defense eventually

He didn't have to have one at Houston and Johnny Football was good enough to get him to this point, but that is about to come to a screeching halt.

I guess I was wrong on my spread. A&M is an explosive team, but they'd have to score 78 to cover.

I didn't realize that A&M's defense was so bad, or that Duke's offense was so competent. A&M might come back to win, but it's still been a shocker.
