Duke football injury report vs. Florida State

Two contrasting streaks are on the line Saturday afternoon as Duke looks to extend its three-game win streak against slumping Florida State.
Vincent Rey is no longer in the spotlight like he was at Wallace Wade Stadium.
David Cutcliffe emerged from the Duke locker room in bare feet, with the high South Florida humidity rendering him unable to get his socks on.
For years, the Blue Devils had an ugly reputation of snatching defeat from the jaws of victory.
With resurrected bowl hopes and a two-game win streak on the line, Duke will look to continue its recent improvement as it squares off against Florida International Saturday night in Miami.
It has been a decade since the last Duke player was drafted into the NFL, but that hasn’t stopped Eron Riley from trying to make it in the pros.
After a disappointing start, Duke's schedule still offers a chance to reach bowl eligibility.
It took only five plays from scrimmage for Sean Renfree to get the Blue Devils out to a 7-0 lead. He looked like a different quarterback, though, the next time he took the field.
Saturday afternoon against Tulane the backfield made a statement that was impossible to ignore.
