Why Wake Forest will win

- Because they are a good team and we aren’t.
-
- Because we just played Clemson and they didn’t. We don’t have two big efforts in a row in us.

- Because they have a punishing running attack and we can’t stop the run with 3 down linemen. Duke and Liberty proved that. Clemson tried to beat us through the air because Etienne was gimpy and they had Lawrence. That played into our strength – the defensive backfield. This game will be played up front.

- Because we are crippled. The injuries just kept piling up. Some guys are out. Others are playing hurt, which means they can’t play at 100%, at least not for four quarters.

- Because you’re not going to beat a defense with a guy named “Boogie Basham”, especially when he’s 6-5 285 and has TFLs in 23 straight games. From the descriptions I’ve read, he sounds like Dwight Freeney. Exactly what we (don’t) need.

- Because they have a walk-on who made NBC’s nightly news. Nick Anderson intercepted 3 passes vs. Virginia Tech.

- No matter what you think about Tommy DeVito, he avoided turnovers Rex Culpepper doesn’t know how to do that. His turnovers cost us a big upset we would probably have had with Tommy. They negate our biggest strength, which is forcing turnovers.

- Of course we negate that by not scoring after we force them. And they will be harder to force against a team that is focused on running the football.

- They remember...
