UNC vs. Duke Football Prediction and Preview

Posted Sep 30, 2021
While Duke enters Kenan Stadium on a three-game win streak, this is a bad matchup for the Blue Devils. Sam Howell will have more time to throw this week and will put up big numbers. Duke should be able to move the ball on offense, but they don't have the firepower to keep up with the Tar Heels. UNC's offense will explode. Prediction: UNC 52, Duke 27. (Athlon Sports)
