Duke running back Desmond Scott ran for 72 yards and a touchdown on just ten carries against Virginia Tech.

It's the third game back for Scott following a leg injury, and it's the third straight game with just ten carries.  But he showed nice wiggle in breaking a 47-yard scamper.  His speed however, left something to be desired, as he should have scored.  He's clearly passed Juwan Thompson (3-25) but is nothing more than a RB5 at Miami next week.
