Despite falling to the undefeated Miami Hurricanes by a score of 53-31, the Duke offense exploded for its most productive game of the season. Wide receiver [autotag]Jordan Moore[/autotag] was a big reason why, and during the course of his strong performance, he surpassed a major milestone with 2,000 career receiving yards.
Against Miami, Moore caught five passes for 75 yards and one touchdown. That brought his season total to 39 receptions for 556 yards and five scores, and in his career as a whole, Moore has caught 161 passes for 2,047 yards and 18 touchdowns since making the switch to receiver in 2022.
Moore currently sits 12th on Duke’s career receiving leaderboard, just 35 yards behind Doug Green for 11th and 250 yards behind Corey Thomas’s spot in the top 10. He will have three more regular-season games (and potentially a bowl game) to move farther up that list.
One of Moore’s catches against Miami came in electric fashion just before the end of the third quarter. He went up and reeled in a one-handed grab in a similar style to Odell Beckham Jr.’s infamous catch for a third-down conversion.
