Duke vs. NCCU

[Bob Green]

How many true freshmen see action on Saturday? That's probably the biggest thing we will learn from this game. Here are the most likely candidates:

#51 Victor Dimukeje DE (listed as a starter)
#86 Drew Jordan DE (listed as 2nd string)
#54 Derrick Tangelo DT (listed as 2nd string)
#67 Rock Chambers OG (listed as 2nd string)
#10 Marquis Waters S (listed as 2nd string)
#26 Michael Carter S (listed as 2nd string)
#87 Noah Gray TE (listed as 3rd string)
#25 Deon Jackson RB (listed as 4th string)
#1 Axel Nyembwe DT (not listed but Coach Cutcliffe has stated he might play)
#38 Jack Driggers K (he might kick off)

I expect a lot of redshirt freshmen to see action starting with #22 RB Brittain Brown and #11 WR Scott Bracey.

There is definitely a youth movement ongoing.
