During this current NFL season, my overriding interest was not how a team did but rather how my fantasy football team performed.

On a cool, wet day here in Winston-Salem, the Demon Deacons host the Navy Midshipmen. This may prove to an interesting game in terms of playing styles. Navy is still pushing the rush dominated option offence while Wake Forest is now a true balanced team. Last year, Navy gave the Deacons some trouble early on [...]

Tonight in Waco Texas, Wake Forest kicks off its 2008 season.
