It is the final home game of the 2025 football season, and the Deacs are taking on a Delaware team that has done pretty well for their first ever season in FBS. At 5-5, the Fightin’ Blue Hens would be playing for bowl eligibility on Saturday if they weren’t on year 2 of their FBS […]

The Deacs picked up win number 3 today after blowing out UMass Lowell by 34 points. This is going to be a pretty quick recap, because this game was not close at all. Wake started the game a little sluggish, which is to be expected in a Sunday afternoon game. The River Hawks hung around […]

The Tar Heels have been a media lightning rod since hiring legendary NFL coach Bill Belichick in the offseason. Despite all the off-field stories and the pretty terrible start to the season, the Heels have started to figure things out a little bit recently. After losing to both Cal and Virginia on basically 1 play […]
The Deacs dropped their first game of the season tonight to the Michigan Wolverine by a score of 84-85. Wake started off the game pretty well, using an 8-0 run in the first few minutes to grab a lead. Ultimately, the story of the half would be foul trouble, as the Deacs struggled to deal […]

The Deacs are going bowling! Wake Forest went into Charlottesville and knocked off the 14th ranked Virginia Cavaliers to get their 6th win of the season. The Deacs did exactly what they needed to do in this one to pull off the upset—turn the game into a defensive slugfest and capitalize on big plays. The […]

The Deacs moved to 2-0 on the season after taking down Morehead State by a score of 81-65. This was one where the final score was not representative of the game, because I really don’t think the Deacs played very well in this one. The story of the first half was free throw shooting. The […]
The Wake Forest Demon Deacons (7-4-6, 2-3-3 ACC) saw their ACC title defense end in the first round, finding themselves on the short end of a 5-4 shootout with the SMU Mustangs (8-4-4, 3-2-3 ACC) For the Deacs, this result will likely end their season, as they sit 47th in the RPI rankings, likely well […]

After a tough game against the Noles last weekend, the Deacs do not get much of a break as they head to Charlottesville to take on an 8-1 Virginia team that is currently unbeaten in conference play and has their sights set on the ACC Championship Game. With their win over Cal last weekend, the […]

The first game of the 2025-26 season is officially in the books, and the Deacs are 1-0. It’s really hard to tell a whole lot from these early buy games, but the thing that gave me a lot of confidence in this team was the ball movement on offense. The Deacs were swinging the ball […]

Well, that one was pretty bad. The Deacs went on the road to a Florida State team that had lost 4 games in a row, and they never had a chance. By the time Wake finally got on the score board, the game had been over for probably an entire quarter. With the loss, the […]
