DURHAM, N.C. -- A week ago, the Duke football team was dealing with adversity after losing back-to-back games to Wake Forest and Northwestern. But last Saturday’s victory at Notre Dame changed the trajectory of the Blue Devil season.
“The spirits are a little higher,” sophomore linebacker Ben Humphreys said Tuesday. “There’s a good feeling about our team and what we can do when we’re at our highest level of play. We’re really comfortable now.
“I think Coach Cut said it best – we really found our identity on Saturday.”
Duke, now 2-2 on the season, will try to sustain its momentum this Saturday when the Blue Devils face Virginia (1-3) at 12:30 p.
