The Publisher of Wake Up, Conor O’Neill joins us on ACC Nation Podcast this week to talk about Wake Forest football and biscuits. That’s right, biscuits and where he thinks you can find the best morning combos. O’Neill provides a great breakdown on one of the teams that we think will be a surprise this season. In eight seasons as head coach, Dave Clawson has taken the Demon Deacons to five consecutive bowls. Will he make it six? That may depend on one of the most underrated quarterbacks in the ACC. Sam Hartman can begin writing his ticket to the NFL with a solid year and Clawson has provided him with all of the offensive weapons he’ll need to shine.

When Wake Forest fans turn to CBS it won’t be the network. Christian Beal-Smith returns to power up the running game. Last year Beal-Smith turned more than a few heads when he put up over 100 yards against North Carolina, Virginia, NC State and Virginia Tech. He’ll be joined by Michigan transfer Christian Turner and Justice Ellison.

The receiving corps is loaded but who steps up to be a leader this year? Clawson thinks it’s one of the best he’s seen in a while.

One of the keys to making an offense tick is the offensive line. O’Neill calls a time-out and straightens us out on having five starters return. The next man up features two players with interesting side stories that he shares.

Boogie Basham is in the NFL and though there may not be the same splash at the position the two ends will deliver consistency. The defensive line has 7 players with starting experience and there are two transfers.

The linebacking corps may only have two starters coming back but the level of experience overall may have ticked up a notch.

If you’re looking for lots of improvement then look no further than the DB’s. Eight starting experience players are back.

O’Neill looks at the schedule and gives us his impressions of how those games may play out. The end of the season could be a rough and tumble run on the road but with minimal injuries the team should have a load of confidence going up against North Carolina, Clemson and Boston College.
