Duke Is Hosting NC A&T For Their 2021 Home Opener Tonight In Durham

Tonight Duke is hosting NC A&T for their 2021 home opener!

In this game Duke who is a member of the Atlantic Coast Conference is searching for their first win of the season!

Why?

Because they come into this game with a record of 0-1!

Why?

Because they were topped by Charlotte a week ago today by a score of 31-28!

Where?

Charlotte North Carolina!

Charlotte scored the go ahead ahead touchdown with 33 seconds remaining to ultimately clinch the upset after Durant had put Duke in front 28-24 with under two minutes to play.

Though, Duke isn’t the only team searching for their first win of the season as NC A&T who is a member of the Big South Conference is too!

Why?

Because like Duke they lost their season opener and started the season 0-1 but unlike Duke NC A&T lost at Furman by a score of 29-18 on Saturday September 4, 2021!

In that game both teams had two turnovers apiece. Furman scored off both of A&T's turnovers. A&T scored zero points on Furman turnovers.
