Wake Forest football has delivered some amazing results under head coach Dave Clawson. Often, outside the ACC, media and fans when asked about the Demon Deacons will ask, who? Word of advice. Take a closer look because the mighty mouse roars. The Publisher of 24/7’s Demon Deacon Digest, Les Johns joins us for an ACC Nation Football Preview and rolls through defense, offense, special teams and a schedule that offers up some challenges as the season progresses.
Stanford, Cal And SMU Unexpected ACC ’23 Additions?
We start with the defense and Johns indicates that there’s more experience and depth than there has been in previous years. The Deacs will bring pressure up front and have a solid secondary capable of shutting down pass aggressive teams.
Wake Forest
One of the keys to improving pass defense is working with a stellar wide receiving corps. Look for Wake Forest to take the top off opposing defenses behind QB Mitch Griffis who steps up to take command of the offense. The depth of the RB room guarantees a solid ‘by committee’ approach behind the workhorse Justice Ellison.
Keep in mind the ‘two deep, three seasons’ we mention early on in the podcast because it’s a great guide in demonstrating Wake Forest has, once again been underestimated. Clawson and company will let the final score do all the talking for them as usual.
