Duke scores - NU 17, Duke 14

Thaddeus Lewis hit Johnny Williams on a 25-yard playaction pass to kick off its drive. Williams was listed as a possible starter for Duke, has made the most of his chances, registering 53 yards receiving on four catches. 

On first down, Thaddeus Lewis barely overthrew a Duke receiver in the endzone, again, when the ball tipped off of Williams' hands on the fly pattern. Northwestern is playing with fire defensively. They've surrendered way too many yards and are clearly gassed. The Duke fast-paced attack has the Cat's defense sucking wind. 

Luckily, on third down, Lewis fired incomplete on a wide receiver screen attempt. 

On fourth, Nick Maggio kicked a 38-yard field goal to bring the Blue Devils within four. 

For a lot of NU's defenders that was the longest 2 minutes and 48 seconds of their lives. NU is extremely lucky to have only surrendered a field goal, and that this game is not tied at 17.
