... wreck that was Duke's performance at No. 22 Kansas, it is back to the drawing board for the Blue Devils.

The game went about as well or poorly depending on your perspective, as expected.

Kansas' potent offense was too much for the Blue Devils, who are still learning on the go after decades of mediocre football.

While the final score 44 to 16 tells the story of the Jayhawks dominance, it doesn't show the effort with which Duke played.

Up until late in the second quarter the game was tied before Kansas pulled away, yet Duke's effort never appeared to waver. And that is a good sign.
