Hands DOWN Wake Forest special teams are worst in the nation. I have NEVER seen special teams play this bad in MY LIFE.

- Kickoff that barely passed the 25 yd lin
- Punt for 20 yds
- Blocked PAT
- TD allowed after punt
- 30 yd. chip shot missed wide by 20 feet

They are bad, there is no doubt about that. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Eek!]" src="eek.gif" />

Worse than Dook's.....that may be stretching it. <img border="0" alt="[laugh]" title="" src="graemlins/laughing.gif" />

Atleast for Duke, it looks like they may have a chance to score some points in some games this year. <img border="0" alt="[laugh]" title="" src="graemlins/laughing.gif" />

Wake misses a 30 yd. chip shot with the wind....
NIU drills one 51 yds INTO THE WIND....

Perhaps Grobe should have recruited NIU's kicker... or... their entire special teams unit for that matter.

Actually Duke's special teams is fairly good, at least the PK is. Duke has a good history @ PK (Sims Lenhardt a couple years ago was one of the best, if not the best, in the nation)

Actually Duke's special teams is(are?) fairly good

Hey Nate, the best thing about the Duke games is you may sit in the end zone seats and only have to fight that other guy for the ball!

Disclaimer: I'm just kidding, I would love to have tomorrow's gameball after the win.

P.S. Rick, that joke about 2 people being in the stadium was funny the first 1, maybe 2 times you told it, it's old now. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Razz]" src="tongue.gif" />

The thought of the cheerleaders using a pneumatic tube to shoot shirts into the stands just kills me!!!! <img border="0" alt="[laugh]" title="" src="graemlins/laughing.gif" /> <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="smile.gif" /> <img border="0" alt="[laugh]" title="" src="graemlins/laughing.gif" /> <img border="0" alt="[laugh]" title="" src="graemlins/laughing.gif" />

Dont ya think it is just a little funny????? <img border="0" alt="[laugh]" title="" src="graemlins/laughing.gif" /> Go ahead, picture it in your mind.....

I haven't kept track, but I would be surprised if Duke's punting unit and kickoff return teams aren't a lot more experienced than everyone else's.
