So, how does Duke react after a big win? How do guys step up with injuries building? (Bright side for us, Devon went down early in the ND game and we won without him.)
Questions that will be answered in less than a week.

Duke currently favored by 3.5 points in Vegas.

Eeeeek!!!! No Jela Duncan for this game, he is out with a leg injury. Man, that is a huge loss.

Coach David Cutcliffe said Thursday that Duncan will be out with an unspecified leg injury but that he hopes the length of time he misses "is shorter than longer."
Duncan ranks eighth in the ACC in rushing, averaging 78.5 yards. Cutcliffe says junior Shaun Wilson will make his third career start and first of the season, with Joseph Ajeigbe (uh-JEE'-bee) backing him up.

The injury report sucks! Losing Jela Duncan is a big deal. I hope they burn Brittain Brown's redshirt and get him in the game early.
Uniform this week is Blue - Blue - White:

Yeah it is black. I wasn't wearing my glasses.
Virginia's secondary will be missing a couple of cornerbacks tomorrow:

What a steaming pile that game was. I feel as if it totally negated the ND experience, turning it from a great win for the program to a mere aberration on the season.

Yep, multiple bad failures on both sides of the ball. Too many 3rd and longs converted by UVa, too many big plays from dreadful coverage by our DB, 6 TO (are you effing kidding me? from a Cut coached team?), some awful play calling and, as Ozzie educated me, a pretty crappy job by our OL with protection breakdowns and he described poor blocking technique allowing the 'hoos to get multiple tipped passes.

5 interceptions was a killer. After the touchdown by Ajeigbe, I thought we might have a shot.

Agreed. We squandered away 2 good chances with under 10:00 and under 8:00 to go in the game when UVA went for it on 4th and 3 near midfield and we stopped them, putting 0 on the board with that possession. On their next possession, Humphreys intercepted them around midfield and returned it to about their 35 and we once again failed to score on that possession.
