- Pick/market: I don't think hitting 50 is necessarily running it up.

Duke–William & Mary preview: A mismatch up front, an opportunity beyond 4-0
- Before Duke's 2026 William & Mary game, Jonathan Patke described an existing rotation of five or six defensive tackles and four or five linebackers, citing Stanford contributions from Kaleb Lanier, Asher Wasserman and Elliott Schaper. Reed started over O'Connor, who then became the staff's player of the game. These are current participation details, not a fixed future depth chart.
- Duke coach Manny Diaz said tight-end versatility lets the offense present different formations each week. The William & Mary preview connects that flexibility to changing blocking surfaces while retaining the offense's basic intentions. It identifies an existing 2026 personnel advantage, not a newly announced package, specific Saturday play or guaranteed rushing result.
- Duke quarterback Walker Eget completed 29 of 45 passes for 408 yards, four touchdowns and one interception across the 2026 Illinois and Stanford games. The preview describes improvement after Tulane but cautions against forcing throws into William & Mary's turnover-producing secondary. That is a two-game performance trend and writer's assessment, not a quarterback or play-calling change.

For your amusement
- QB/LB: I don’t think I would call it Duke hate, but I would definitely call it bias.

- QB/DB: Not to defend CB, but he didn't know that Eget would be at Duke this year when he left.

Duke vs. Stanford
- WR: This team has to be more vertical in the passing game than horizontal at this point.

- TE: I’m wondering why we aren’t doing some of those PA passes with NS rolling out or to TE.

- QB: That’s what I’ve noticed as well - somehow they only have 1 holding penalty and Duke had one on D that play too.
