For the second time in a month, ACC Network’s primary football show will be on-site in Durham for the weekend.
The channel announced on Friday that ACC Huddle would set up shop in Durham ahead of the Week 13 matchup between the Duke Blue Devils (7-3, 3-3) and Virginia Tech Hokies (5-5, 3-3).
Duke’s final home game of the season will be the nightcap on ACC Network, kicking off at 8:00 p.m. Eastern time. The Blue Devils already revealed they’ll wear black jerseys and blue helmets, and the grounds crew painted the end zones black. In his first year with the program, head coach Manny Diaz won four of his first five games at Wallace Wade Stadium, and Duke is 15-3 within the friendly confines since the start of 2022.
ACC Huddle also stopped in the Bull City in Week 9 ahead of the Blue Devils’ battle with SMU, and that game resulted in an instant classic. Duke lined up for a game-winning field goal on the final play of regulation, but the Mustangs blocked the kick to force overtime.
The Blue Devils tried for a game-winning 2-point conversion, but Maalik Murphy’s pass sailed just past Eli Pancol’s outstretched hands.
