Following Duke completing 2023 regular season with 30-19 win over Pittsburgh Saturday in Durham Duke Head Coach Mike Elko had this to say about his team about his teams defense about how they performed in 4th quarter!
It’s a great product,”It’s a great environment. It’s a great atmosphere, and that’s where it’s got to start. If you want to be a great program, you’ve got to win football games at home.”
We just started actually running the defense the way we’re supposed to,
That’s probably been the thing that’s gotten the most frustrating a little bit over the last couple of weeks. I just think we haven’t been able to be focused enough to execute at the level that you need to be a good defense at times. Early on (against Pitt), that wasn’t happening.”
