The Blue Devils started slow with just 5 yards in the first quarter, but got jump-started by a fumble that led to a one-play touchdown drive. They scored on their last three possessions of the first half, taking the crowd completely out of the game. Duke had 162 yards in the second quarter to lead 21-3. Harris, who was missing receivers early, finished 20 for 27 for 163 yards and ran for 100 yards on 17 carries. - AP College Football

Quentin Harris threw for 237 yards and four touchdowns and also ran for 107 yards as the Duke Blue Devils scored 34 straight points in beating Middle Tennessee 41-18 Saturday night. Duke coach David Cutcliffe came out gambling early and often against his old friend, Middle Tennessee coach Rick Stockstill. The Blue Devils (2-1) recovered their own onside kick after scoring a TD on their first drive, then Harris hit a 27-yard pass on fourth-and-3 as they scored on four of their first five possessions and led 31-3 at halftime. "I thought it had a chance of building momentum," Cutcliffe said of the onside kick. "And when you steal a possession and then score, that really hurts the opposing team."

Harris completed his first 12 passes before finally missing Noah Gray when hurried at 6:25 of the second quarter. Harris finished 24 of 27 with a 12-yard TD pass to Jalon Calhoun, an 11-yarder to Eli Pancol and a 25-yarder to Aaron Young ruled good after review in the final seconds of the first half for a 31-3 halftime lead. He added an 18-yard TD to Young in the third. "We want to be an aggressive team and really give the fight to the other team, so I thought we did a good job of being on the offensive side of things today," said Harris, who now has thrown four TD passes in back-to-back games. The Blue Devils outgained Middle Tennessee (1-2) 463-339 in total offense. Chris Rumph had two of Duke's six sacks. - Duke/AP College Football

Quentin Harris waited four years for his chance to be Duke's leader. He's taking advantage of it with the help of some rookies. Harris passed for a career-high 345 yards and four touchdowns, three to freshmen, to lead Duke past North Carolina A&T 45-13 on Saturday night. Harris also rushed for 83 yards and a score as the Blue Devils (1-1) overcame a sluggish start to win their home opener for the eighth consecutive season. "Whenever you get a chance to play well in a game setting, it's a good confidence boost," Harris said. "I think it shows you what our offense is capable of when we're playing to the best of our abilities."

Duke scored three touchdowns in the final 3:10 of the first half, turning a 10-7 deficit into a 28-10 lead. Harris had scoring strikes of 22 yards and 39 yards to Mateo Durant and Eli Pancol, respectively, and capped the spurt with a 6-yard touchdown run on a quarterback draw. Jalon Calhoun had eight catches for 105 yards and two touchdowns for the Blue Devils. Calhoun and Pancol are freshmen who have quickly established a rapport with Harris, a fifth-year senior who was a backup behind NFL first-round draft pick Daniel Jones until this season. "It's becoming more and more his team," Duke coach David Cutcliffe said. "They trust him, and he trusts them." Jeremiah Martin rushed for 82 yards, including a 66-yard touchdown, for N.C. A&T (1-1). Noel Ruiz made field goals of 40 and 36 yards for the Aggies. - AP College Football

Cornerback Mark Gilbert, a Fayetteville native who only played in two games last season because of a hip injury, underwent a second surgery during the offseason, Cutcliffe said Friday. Gilbert suffered a dislocated left hip against Northwestern and first had surgery in September. His status for fall camp was unclear before undergoing the second surgery, and Cutcliffe wouldn't say Friday when Gilbert, a first-team All-ACC selection in 2017, might be able to return. "We don't know long-term outcomes to this point," Cutcliffe said. - News Observer

07/20/19 - Deon Jackson, Sr/2021, Duke, 5-11, 218 (DS#26 RB) + More +

He arrived at Duke more comfortable at wide receiver, prone to late-night fast-food cravings that added the wrong kind of weight to his 6-foot frame. Now Deon Jackson is a different person mentally and physically, and those are good things for the Blue Devils. Last fall as a sophomore, Jackson emerged as one of the ACC's most explosive threats on offense, given his ability to produce big plays in the running, passing and return games.

His versatility gives Duke hope its offense can be productive this season even after quarterback Daniel Jones left a year early to become the No. 6 overall pick in last April's NFL Draft. "The versatility of Deon creates a lot of possibilities," Duke coach David Cutcliffe said. "I really believe he may be the most versatile back that I've been around in my career." - Herald Sun

07/18/19 - Quentin Harris, rSr/2020, Duke, 6-1, 200 (DS#28 QB) + More +

Duke coach David Cutcliffe isn't losing any sleep over the challenge of replacing Daniel Jones, the first quarterback selected in April's NFL draft. That's because he has fifth-year senior Quentin Harris ready to take reigns. Cutcliffe said Wednesday during ACC media days that he has "great confidence" in Harris, calling him a "brilliant" player who is well prepared to position the Blue Devils to compete for the Coastal Division title this season.

Cutcliffe says Harris has a great grasp of the team's pass play concepts and now it's only a matter of zeroing in on the plays he's most comfortable with. Harris should also get plenty of help offensively from running backs Brittain Brown and Deon Jackson, who ran for 847 yards last season - the most by a running back in the Cutcliffe era. - AP College Football
