Duke went for it on fourth and goal and did not make it. Florida State now takes over at the 4 with 4:21 remaining in the third quarter.
Out of the timeout, Duke still going for it. Wow. Belin had a guy in the back of the end zone and missed him under pressure. FSU defense gets a stop but the offense takes over at its own 4.
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.
FSU's defense holds in the red zone. Duke on for a 34-yard field goal. FSU offense will get the ball with about 35 seconds left and no timeouts if it tries to do something.
Duke having great success with a little counter-read run that FSU keeps overplaying. Uh, until that play.
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.
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
And the inside run gets blown up. Duke takes over at the FSU 35. Woof.

#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
Duke is a scrappy bunch with the ability to make life difficult for FSU. But I think FSU can handle the Blue Devils with relative ease if it hits on these three areas tonight: https://t.co/XS6X4UJYOu
Noles News: What will it take for FSU to beat Duke? https://t.co/bEQVrbCTEE
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.
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.
