EVANSTON, Ill. — Maalik Murphy threw two quick touchdown passes in overtime, hitting Jordan Moore on a 25-yard pass and Eli Pancol on a 3-yarder to lead Duke to a 26-20 victory over Northwestern at temporary Lanny and Sharon Martin Stadium on Friday night. Mike Wright's desperation fourth-down heave to Frank Covey IV in the end zone failed to connect in the second OT and Duke (2-0) beat the Wildcats (1-1) for a sixth straight time dating to 2016, giving new coach Manny Diaz a second win. Northwestern is playing the majority of its home games at its temporary stadium — plus a handful at Wrigley Field — over the next two seasons while a new 35,000-seat Ryan Field is built.
