Duke Football: Blue Devils, Wildcats ready for battle between unbeatens

It is going to be a war at Ryan Field on Saturday afternoon between a pair of 1-0 teams.

David Cutcliffe and the Duke Blue Devils will be heading up to Evanston, Illinois to face the Northwestern Wildcats in a rematch from a game last year at Wallace Wade Stadium where the Blue Devils beat down the Wildcats 41-17.

Northwestern is coming off of a major victory on the road in primetime against conference rival Purdue while playing two quarterbacks.

Clayton Thorson and T.J. Green both shared time in the first half in the Wildcats victory last week, but it was Thorson who got the snaps in the 2nd half, despite Northwestern not being able to score in the 2nd half.
