Duke University's football team triumphed with a 24-3 win over North Carolina State University in an NCAA football match. The Blue Devils' first passing touchdown of the season was a significant contribution to their lead, thrown by Tight End Henry Belin to Jeremiah Asley. NC State struggled to penetrate Duke's defense, failing to advance the ball within the 20-yard line. Duke's dominance left NC State with points only from their initial drive. Subsequently, Duke continued their winning streak by scoring first against Florida State University (FSU).
Duke ends up adding a field goal to make it 10-0 early. Nice job from the defense to keep them out the endzone, but FSU still finds themselves down two scores early
Duke up 10 at Florida State. North Carolina tied 14-14 against #UVA. Live look at ACC headquarters ... https://t.co/WtExkAvtIv
Duke up 10-0 now, as a result of Florida State failing to convert on fourth-and-short and giving the Blue Devils terrific field position on both drives.
Another 4th and short where Duke dominates the FSU OL results in another turnover on downs. Duke takes over inside the 35 already up 7-0
DUKE GETS ON THE BOARD FIRST AGAINST FSU 😤 https://t.co/ttHr6KveJe
#FSU in an early hole as it comes up empty on its opening drive and Duke hits a 42-yard touchdown run. 7-0 Blue Devils with 9:50 left in the first quarter. https://t.co/EAzpFiXAZq
Penn State on third down https://t.co/pZ0ON99Xtp
This offense allegedly averaged 44.3 points per game. Penn State drops to 0 for 12 today on third downs and turns it over. Ugly.
Penn State is 0-12 on third down.
one first down for Penn State in the second half
Penn State’s offense, woof
Penn State 0-for-12 on third down. Unreal. https://t.co/MXPC3cBehb
Ohio State's lead is now 13-6 after the field goal by Jayden Fielding. Penn State needs a touchdown. That seems like a lot for them right now.
Penn State getting absolutely nothing from its passing game and being down 10-6, guess you'll take that.
Another Penn State punt. Third-down conversions so far ... Ohio State 1-5 Penn State 0-5
Ohio State and Penn State combine to go 1-for-8 on third down in the first quarter.
3-3 at the end of the first quarter. Penn State offense looks like it could be on the precipice of breaking through. Play-calling has generally been a positive from Yurcich so far.
End of 1st quarter #PennState 3, Ohio State 3.

Initial Thoughts and Reactions to NC State’s Loss at Duke https://t.co/oaAwSmzogH
Duke beats N.C. State 24-3. Three touchdown "drives" took a total of 4 plays. Wolfpack got a 57-yard FG two minutes into the game and didn't score again. The winning QB, Henry Belin IV, was 4-for-12 for 107 yards. Duke is at FSU next weekend.
Final. No. 17 Duke 24, NC State 3. NC State did not move the ball inside the Duke 20-yard line the entire night. The Wolfpack's lone points came on its first drive of the contest. https://t.co/03HU9UVxVX
That might change on this drive, but Duke's defense has not allowed NC State's offense to get to their red zone tonight. Really impressive performance for Tyler Santucci's unit in this game.
Duke kept the ball on the ground to allow the clock to run. NC State forced a punt. Wolfpack will start on its own 20-yard line with 4:19 to play. No. 17 Duke 24, NC State 3.
Duke takes a 24-3 lead into the 4th quarter. Blue Devils had 7 plays that quarter. One went 83 yards; the other six netted minus-2 yards. They are ... content with putting this on their defense and not asking much of a first-time starter at QB.
End of the third quarter: No. 17 Duke 24, NC State 3.
NC State's defense holds for another Duke three-and-out. The Blue Devils will punt.
Didn’t expect State to score tonight but surprised their defense is giving up so many big plays to Duke and their backup QB
Jordan Waters 83-yard TD run gives Duke a 24-3 lead over NC State. Tied for the third-longest run in Blue Devils history. Duke in total control of this game despite not having Riley Leonard in uniform.
Duke rips off an 83 yard touchdown run. No. 17 Duke 24, NC State 3. 3Q 8:47.
Duke's first passing touchdown of the year to a Tight End goes from @HenryBelin to @jeremiahasley as the Blue Devils go up 17-3 over visiting NC State --> https://t.co/hk0aTwL9Hh
NC State kept Duke in the 1st quarter with 6 penalties. Now they’re giving Duke short field with a turnover. That’ll do it.
Duke up 17-3 on State early in the second quarter
Duke needs one play for a 7-yard touchdown pass. No. 17 Duke 17, NC State 3. 2Q 11:36.
Duke rushed three, dropped eight into coverage. MJ Morris threw the ball directly to Tre Freeman, who picked it off at the NC State 33. Duke now at Wolfpack 8, leading 10-3
Payton Wilson sniffs out a run on third-and-16. That forces Duke into a 53-yard field goal attempt. It's good. No. 17 Duke 10, NC State 3. 2Q 12:45. Live game blog: https://t.co/7S2eQuES2h
First quarter is over here. Quite sloppy for State. False starts, drops and penalties (six, for 50 yards) and now Duke on the move again, inside the Wolfpack 35 when we return. Duke clearly misses Riley Leonard, but has also clearly been the cleaner, more well-coached team.
After 1 quarter, Duke's finding their rhythm offensively as Henry Belin has plenty of time to sit back in the pocket and those chunk passing plays have loosened up the NCSU defense. 7 Duke 3 NCSU
End of the first quarter: No. 17 Duke 7, NC State 3.
Another explosive run by Duke. Blue Devils are at the NC State 37-yard line.
NC State had Duke back to its own 1-yard line, but a defensive pass interference call on second down gave the Blue Devils some breathing room to work with.
N.C. State lined up to go for it on a fourth down in Duke territory and ... false start. Believe that's at least three. To go along with at least two drops. Sloppy, sloppy. But State does manage to down the punt inside the Duke 5.
MJ Morris picked up eight yards on a scramble to set up fourth-and-5 at the Duke 39-yard line. NC State will leave the offense on the field here.
State's defense has been good this season, but has nonetheless been susceptible to allowing big plays. Like just now. Belin to a wide-open Jalon Calhoun for a 69-yard touchdown. Duke takes a 7-3 lead, 6:26 1Q.
Duke's Henry Belin IV finds Jalon Calhoun for a 69-yard touchdown. He beat Rente Hinton with a double move and had an easy path to the end zone. The Blue Devils needed two plays to go 90 yards in 40 seconds. No. 17 Duke 7, NC State 3. 1Q 6:26.
Duke absolutely has to be able to run the ball to beat NC State. Two drives in, it's not happening. Elko shuffled OL on 2nd drive, with Monk shifting from C to RG. Scott Elliott at C. Still couldn't convert a 3rd and 1.
NC State's offense goes three-and-out as Morris' pass to Lesane was a tad high. Brayden Narveson's 57-yard field goal is good. What. A. Kick. NC State 3, Duke 0. 1Q 13:04.
What is going on at Penn State 😂 🐶 https://t.co/7lc2KTmJZp
End of 3rd quarter: No. 19 Tennessee 14, Texas A&M 13
Penn State goes up 28-0 on a touchdown pass from Allar to Tyler Warren. Would not be surprised if that's the last pass thrown by the starter today.
End of 1st quarter here in Knoxville: Texas A&M 7, No. 19 Tennessee 7.
Call is confirmed. Penn State leads 14-0. Offense looked much better there. Seems to have its feet under it now and should be able to roll the rest of the way.
Penn State up 7-0 at the end of the first quarter. Offense has yet to score, but the other two units look great right now.
Penn State's first TD of the afternoon comes via... a 56-yard punt return from Daequan Hardy. There's a nice boost for PSU's special teams. Alex Felkins makes it 7-0.
