Wake Forest opens -11...

[690West]

Looks like a misprint when reading it. 2020 my goodness.

 

[Dinkyspond]

not surprised, despite giving Clemson a scare for awhile we are still the team that stunk up the joint vs. Duke and Liberty at home. I'd like to see the Orange use the confidence gained from the Clemson game and springboard it to a W vs. the Deacs

I wish I wasn’t surprised, but I am (guess it’s why I am always leading with my face when it comes to being a Cuse fan). I thought at worst+7

I don't know, it seems reasonable to me. It will be interesting to see if there is any early movement.

I’ll see Vegas in hell. We are winning this game

Which Syracuse shows up? First 6 games Syracuse or some other team dressed in Syracuse uniforms?

 

[OrangeinBoston]

Have to bring their best game yet as Wake is very good.

 

[upperdeck]

no wake is not very good.. which doesnt mean they wont win by 30.. Their offense has regressed but their D has stepped up the last few weeks.

 

[Chip]

I thought it was going to be 14.

 

[syrBossHogg]

Maybe a little boost from their upset of VT. Still have a puncher's chance to win

 

[TheCusian]

I think the line is about right, but I have no clue how the game will go.

 

[OttoinGrotto]

For whatever reason outside of monsoon conditions we seem to play well against them.

 

[Redrum]

We will be double digit dogs the rest of the year except NC state given there Qb situation
Optimism...
O line getting better
No drops Saturday
Big ? Is tucker healthy ? I’ll know Tuesday
D played inspired will trill be back Saturday?
Bottom line is if the O line keeps getting better and tucker keeps the D honesty we can use the tight ends and even the playing field for the passing game

 

[qdawgg]

This game could end up going a million different scenarios and none of them will surprise me. Should make for a fun game, at least to start!

 

[JRHEETER]

Yeah not surprised to be underdogs. For the first time this season I really feel like we have a chance.

Don’t have to come in with an over complicated game plan. Just need to sustain drives and punch it in when we can.

 

[Qbobby]

Seems like a fair line to me.

 

[orangecuse]

Wake can run the ball, and after that Duke debacle, the blueprint was set...see Liberty. For some strange reason, Clemson decided to come out throwing and did so for a large part of the game before smartening up and pounding the running game in the 4th Q. Wake had approx. 225 yards rushing after 3 quarters against a pretty good VPI D. I think Wake will wear us down with their running game, and we won't be able to answer as their D has played pretty solid ball. Having to win this game with Culpepper throwing (especially from behind) will be problematic and a dire plight...in my opinion.

Hackett did drop that easy 3rd down pass from Rex when we had some momentum going. I thought there was a catchable ball that Nykeim jumped for and could have caught..But, overall, the drops were not as bad as they have been
