was seen on TRS before the game Porter with the cut back he gets the penalty yardage back and Men some zooming down the sideline with the first big hitter of the game for the cats from 44 yds and olsson's first field ball the night trying to push it through the winds and he did yeah that just hit a wall of wind here we go got got here we go snap it when they're in the neutral zone Duke knew it too right taking his first shot and coverage over the top was right there to S snap it away Terry Moore with the pick for Duke for the cats you can see the out corner and he's just fading away you can't finish that whole shot Terry Moore go up and get it his first pick of the Year too bad that wasn't a free play I think Mike knew it wasn't a free play he just can't fade away got punches right tight as we get tigh into the Red Zone off play action Murphy over the middle in for a touchdown Eli panle from Murphy and Duke has the first touchdown against the Wildcats defense in 2024 coming down you see zero osma nine reacting to that hard cell run fake can't get beat inside on second down it's right up this is where he's dangerous and he has a first down for the wild [Applause] cats SC to another yes transferring from Princeton to Duke KF nowhere to go edges set Wesley Williams who does his best work in pass rush but stepping up in a run fit there yeah these guys do it all manic smile might return from Manny Diaz if his defense can push Northwestern further back out of field goal range right trying to get around the edge and he's not getting there Chandler rivers in the back field up from cornerback wind at the back go false start negative negative 12 yd going backwards later Brown drops the ball Wayan Brown drops the ball and they'll have to unile [Applause] [Music] it Northwestern pointing that they have it and they do getting the ball back for Northwestern just got a little lazy with his fundamentals man that is a That's So Good by Fitzgerald right there you just teach that guy to play like a short stop or a second baseman just open your hands and be ready for that Ricochet back in the first quarter that's where we stand first and goal it's Porter busting out of a tackle touchdown cam Porter quarter embodies everything we're all about you're going to have to run through some tackles Wesley Williams he loves ball and this crowd loves that sub in our safety get a return man back against the winds Henning calling for a fair catch 42 yd punt for reynoldson and the punter is down no flag came out Kade reynoldson actually no reynoldson up it's actually Jeremiah hazley him as the personal protector right there gosh just looked like he kind of locked [Applause] out Northwestern crowd very classy with their reaction to the Deep Sonia PA native inside slant is the first guy in that progression on that time RP first third down of the second half for Duke pocket collapses down he goes RJ Pearson with the sack for the Wildcats first sack of the Season that Duke has given up they had their first penalty in the first half W and when you're the te part of that a lot of times on that pick you become the free rusher J right there boom boom ball is blocked northwester to the big special teams play got an overloaded little rugby style punt here from duke working to the right great angle that time great job get his eyes on he should keep his eyes on it use both hands but when you put that one big this is from 29 that series started first and goal from the N9 yd line tackle for a loss for Aaron Hall up the middle then back to- back incomplete passes and kick off the upright not only a win to force the field goal but a Miss sponse by the defense and a single do and the City of the Double D less than 100 total yards in the first half for the Duke offense on second down it's Murphy looking for an explosive not going to come here they in Johnson with the [Applause] interception fourman Rush a little pressure right there Malik Murphy cannot throw this ball this timing of this it's short [Applause] it's we have some some sort of animal a rabbit that's a rabbit we have a rabbit in the end zone Zack Luhan a attack rabbit with her from South Dakota State oh wow that's big that's impressive the new offensive coordinator for the Wildcats brought his old mascot with him got to stay in bounds oh cbit Oklahoma drill let's [Applause] go oh boy Ball's out ball is out KF lost the football Duke is on it a snatch him back turnover for the Blue Devils it's Azie Nicholas and now forced a huge fumble comes up clean unblocked at the point of attack he got five guys in the back field northwester try to get an unbalanced and kind of quick count him and then look what I found for Aussie Nicholas 45 right on the edge of the career long for Todd Pino his career long as 52 yds he does have the wind at his back from 50 to tie the game for Duke Pino on the way and it is good couple just office fingertips three straight throws three straight completions that's to Robertson another first down much better little RPO action confidence tie game fourth down and two late in the third quarter a pitch out to the edge his drops would have been a sure first down for Del Mullen secure that ball trust your quarterback's doing the right thing trust the call secure it eyes to the [Applause] tuck that right is earned tonight with that cisman busts up the middle a patient run turned into a burst and a first down for Northwestern so Jack Olsen who's made one and missed one this is in the middle of the make and the Miss from 35 yds Olson's third try of the night to give Northwestern the lead and he does so Northwestern gets three to change the shell usually Northwestern playing with two high safeties as they are on free snap here on First and 20 back over the middle down Mullen has a first down they erase the penalty right away and they're now in field goal Range s Pino With the Wind hit from 50 this is Against the Wind for 33 and the tie for Duke late into the game in Evon and Pino did not hit [Applause] Ito great contact earlier this one you can see that kind of wobbling flight that just means it's not struck Square just pushed slightly is it botch there's a poino right on a huge third down it's Murphy back to throw and has it complete to Harvey first down Blue Devils no more and plenty of time and space to play with for Duke chasing a field goal and it's Murphy and Saka brings him down ball comes out ball comes out after Saka made the headit and North Western saying they've got it and they [Music] [Applause] do Murphy pulls it down and that ball is loose and it lands Saka almost pulls him down on top [Music] of so that's a situation the clock is running a nasty wind in his face Pino for the tie for Duke operation Good Pino puts it [Applause] through call timeout block would stop on a first down on inside two minutes right taking a lot of time through that tackle didn't get to the sticks hit a little bit late Northwestern sideline wanted Del lay hit but we're at triple Zer yeah both sides let it run out duke it it doesn't matter where it is for Duke go bring it heavy do a porter he has the seam outside race to the pylon B in for a [Applause] touchdown side Watch 87 right there locking him up gets it to bounce cut back to him half to great success they're starting running back y starting running back is out injured he's going right for the end zone for more why waste any time first play for Duke in overtime a touchdown for Moore complete that double move on the outside fell incomplete this is another little Murphy feeling it a wide snap Murphy away to pinkle back shoulder touchdown Duke and now they have to go for two in the second overtime the fade stop the back shoulder panles got to sell it Go vertical right here great spot by Murphy such a big time throw in this situation could here to the field defended by four players quarterback Jaws a possibility Murphy looking to that Bunch floats it over the top but it's knocked away here we go quarterback run right runs out of room nowhere to go Rivers up to make the Stop and the game comes down to Fourth Down ball game right here right by time right retreating right for the End Zone it is incomplete wins it on the lake beating Northwest turn it overtime that's [Applause]
