I hate to be a downer but comparing
both Tech & Duke, Duke is far more aggressive, especially on defense. With the way players and coaches have performed recently I don’t see a win this weekend. Pry didn’t sound positive in his press conference. He looked worried, almost distracted. As if he knows something he isn’t revealing. This team isn’t going to be rewarded with the way they are playing. Sorry, just looking at this realistically.

I don’t know. Sure seems like 50%+ of ACC games are anybody’s guess.
