So... This Game Is Pretty Huge

The last time a top 25 Wake Forest team hosted another top 25 team was in 1979, when #18 Wake beat #13 Auburn 42-38.

That was also the last time Wake Forest beat another ranked team.

If we win today, it'll be the first time Wake was 8-1 since 1944.

The winner of today's game will be first in the ACC Atlantic and control it's own destiny toward the ACC Championship game.

Needless to say, this is could be the biggest regular season game in Wake Forest history, and I've never regretted being 500 miles away from home more than today. You have no idea how much I wanted to drive down to Groves this weekend. But it would have been law school suicide. Ugh. Stupid education getting in the way of football.

So, 7pm. ESPN2 or, preferably, Groves Stadium. BE THERE, WAKE FANS. BE THERE.

GO DEACS!!!!


O here's to Wake Forest
A glass of the finest Red ruddy,
Rhenish filled up to the brim.

Her sons they are many

Unrivaled by any

With hearts o'erflowing, we will sing a hymn.


Rah! Rah! Wake Forest Rah!

Old Alma Mater's sons are we.

We'll herald the story

And die for her glory,

Old Gold and Black is ever waving high.


As frosh we adore her

As sophs we explore her
And carve our names upon her ancient walls.

As juniors patrol her

As seniors extol her

And weep to leave fore'er her sacred halls.
