DURHAM, N.C. (AP) Shaquille Powell rushed for three touchdowns and Duke's defense dominated No. 20 Georgia Tech in a 34-20 victory Saturday

DeVon Edwards returned a kickoff 100 yards for a score while Powell scored on runs of 1, 4 and 30 yards for Duke (3-1, 1-0 Atlantic Coast Conference).

Thomas Sirk was 17 of 25 for 114 yards with an 11-yard touchdown pass to T.J. Rahming.

Justin Thomas pulled Tech to 26-20 with his 12-yard TD run with 8:02 left, and the Yellow Jackets (2-2, 0-1) had two chances after that to reclaim the lead.

They were stuffed on four downs deep inside Duke territory, a series before Thomas fumbled at his own 39 after a hit from Jeremy Cash with 2:12 left.

Powell then took a fourth-and-1 handoff up the middle for the 30-yard touchdown run that iced Duke's second straight win over a ranked Georgia Tech team.
