Northwestern vs. Duke predictions

Matthew Albert: Northwestern 34, Duke 28

As many could tell by my prediction last week, I am very bullish on this year’s team. I think that the inexperience of Duke’s offensive line and the three starters they lost due to graduation after last season will provide the Northwestern front seven exactly what they need to be able to bring the pressure they need to limit the effectiveness of Duke quarterback Daniel Jones. I also expect NU to rely heavily on Jeremy Larkin because Duke’s talented secondary along with the “pitch count” will limit Northwestern’s passing attack.
