The Belk Bowl will happen right across the street from me. It is Cincinnati vs. Duke. If you can find a way to lure Louisville here, I would gladly give my life to summon a meteorite to wipe out the lot of them. I would add UNC-CH but let's start small...
I don't hate Dook football. Dook Basketball on the other hand.
I am a "casual fan" of Duke football, and especially Coach Cutcliffe.

Casual fan? I did not think Duke had any football fans. Pretty sure all Duke fans are FL State football fans.

I pull for Duke whenever they play. It drives other ACC fans crazy when they win. Especially against other NC ACC schools. Plus Coach Cut is all class. The way he shut down the offers from Tennessee solidified it.
And I am a "casual" fan, because I won't buy/wear any merchandise, nor buy any tickets. But I'll watch them on TV if nothing else is on.

Sounds like my opinion of Duke. My dad is a Duke fan also, and really we don't play Duke anymore so it's not hard for me to have a casual rooting interest in Duke. I'm a big Cutt fan also.
Duke has smacked Cincy in the face with a 2x4 so far. 16-0.
Cincy's interims are LOST!
Clearly these refs are old school because they aren't calling helmet to helmet tonight.

I've counted three HtH hits that were never called (two against Duke, one against cincy.) Did I miss any others?
4th none call on helmet to helmet in 1 half. NCAA is going to ream this officiating crew.
And Duke receiver had control of that ball all the way to the ground. Not impressed with this crew so far.
damn.. what a bounce on that punt (even if it went out of bounds, he got a heck of a bounce on that!)
These refs suck donkey balls.
Cutcliff is livid.
I don't care about either of year schools enough to wish a meteor on either.
North Carolina v. N. C. State in Raleigh next year.... I might could conjure up something.
whoa, lot of duke fans here
I'm amazed that certain schools control their state so much, then again, I live in El Paso and not houston, san antonio or dallas
I don't necessarily cheer for Duke, but I have nothing against them. I like to see them win just because it pisses off UNC. Re-direct the meteor to a UNC-NC State game.

It's just the fact they haven't been to a bowl game in forever, so you kind of root for them as the underdog of sorts. If this were basketball, I'd be rooting for a permament tie at best (depending on who they were playing)
