Deeper dive into #FSU’s win over #Duke: https://t.co/SsrjHvO7Bf
FSU beats Duke 38-20. A lot more lopsided of a score than the type of game this was for about 3 quarters. Everything changed with Duke up 20-17 and Riley Leonard injured, failing to convert 4th down. Blue Devils are 5-2, 2-1 ACC and at Louisville next weekend.
Credit Jordan Travis for bringing @Seminoles back, but honestly, play of the game was Riley Leonard getting hurt. Duke scores TD to go up 27-17 if he was in game. Make it much easier for FSU to defend run with starting QB out of game.
Duke goes for it on 4th down. They get cute and try a misdirection throw with a backup QB. Incomplete. FSU's defense holds.
FSU's defense holds on fourth down inside its own 5. Still a 20-17 Duke lead
Three straight traditional runs by Duke and FSU's defense holds again. Duke lines up to go but then takes a timeout.
Duke down inside the FSU 25. Defense going to need to buck up again back in its own end.
Defense with a good start to the half. Braden Fiske's fingerprints all over that drive. Duke goes to line on 4th down and FSU forced to call a timeout. Good gamesmanship there from Duke to get FSU to burn a timeout very early. Duke staying out on 4th and 4.
Duke takes 20-17 lead to halftime and FSU will kick to the Blue Devils to start the 2nd half
Duke leads Florida State 20-17 at halftime - Blue Devils are getting it done on the ground, and Riley Leonard is showing some real grit taking hits and scrambling around on his injured ankle. Saw him wince a few times, but keeps on going.

Duke drills the field goal and retakes the lead 20-17 with 36 seconds left in the first half. Blue Devils also get the ball out of halftime.
Duke having great success with a little counter-read run that FSU keeps overplaying. Uh, until that play.
Florida State cannot get out of its own way. FSU had two turnovers on downs that led to 10 Duke points and now Jordan Travis throws a pick-six. Duke leads 17-7 with 13:04 left in the first half.
FSU busts a run but it comes back on a hold. Going to be 2nd and 20 instead of a fresh set of downs inside the Duke 30.
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
Huge response from FSU's defense. Will force Duke to kick from 45 yards out. It's good, but 3 is better than 7.
FSU's defense holds but Duke will attempt a 45-yard field goal.
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
And #FSU is stuffed AGAIN on fourth and short. Duke takes over around the Noles' 35. Wow
#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
