After a week’s break, Wake Forest is back on the gridiron, this time on the road against Florida State. After years being fodder for Florida State much in the way Duke is today, Wake Forest has beaten the Seminoles two games in a row. In fact, it was the 30-0 thrashing in Tallahassee two years [...]
There has been plenty of commentary this week on the rather lackluster performance of many of the ACC teams last week highlighted by the loss by Clemson to Alabama. So much so, Wake Forest is in the unenviable position of carrying the pride of ACC into its game against the SEC’s Mississippi (Ole Miss).
Ole Miss [...]
Tonight in Waco Texas, Wake Forest kicks off its 2008 season. Playing against the Baylor Bears, the Deacons have some expectations to live up to as a 23rd ranked team. With a more mature offence lead by Rily Skinner and one of the best back field defenses in the ACC , tonight’s game should be [...]
Second weekend of NCAA tournament ball. Right now my brackets are in not in very good shape but my Elite 8 teams are all still in there. Right now, I am picking Carolina, Tennessee, Kansas and Wisconsin on the East & Midwest brackets. For the West and South brackets, I have Memphis, Texas, UCLA and [...]

Yesterday, Wake Forest won the Meinke Car Care Bowl in Charlotte NC, beating University of Connecticut 24-10. it was a bit nerve wracking going in to halftime with the team down 10-0 to the Huskies but on the opening drive of the second half, the Deacons marched down the field for a major score and [...]
Well, Wake Forest managed to avoid a bit of a shock when Coach Jim Grobe decided that his heart and career for now stays in Winston-Salem rather than the position at Arkanas. It would have been a lucrative offer to be sure with the Arkansas booster club putting up nearly $2 million in extra salary [...]
