NU on the Board - Duke 7, Northwestern 7

Duke registers a first down on a scramble by Thaddeus Lewis, whose escapability has been impressive, but two dropped passes stop Duke in its tracks. 

Duke is forced to punt, and Eric Peterman breaks several tackles up to the 45 yard line where the Cats will take over, first-and-ten.

After a too many men on the field penalty by Duke, Bacher completes a hook pattern to Ross Lane, who breaks a few tackles and makes it down to the Duke 18 on the 28-yard strike. 

After a dropped pass by Rasheed Ward, Sutton takes a carry off left tackle and goes untouched to the end zone. That's the Sutton we're used to seeing. 

Talk about fast-paced. NU's drive - 4 plays, 55 yards, 55 seconds. 

With just over two minutes remaining in the first it's all tied. up.
