Wake is not a horrible team


Sep 13, 2020, 12:06 PM

I bet they get 6 or 7 wins this year. All 3 QBs looked decent to me, couple of receivers, and their running back #9. Defense needs work, but their DL did an ok job of containing our running game.

I know we could have beaten them by 50+, but they are no cupcake.

Yep. They have a good sound team.

That's just nowhere near what we have.

I saw enough out of Wake to know that we would have gotten flamed by a team with a good offense and offensive game plan. We can talk about players not playing but you go with what you got. I'm not sure with that secondary we could outscore a team with an offense as good as ours. And I'm not being negative, just realistic. I hope they get things patched up but it is a real concern going forward.

Take a breath!
Our secondary was short Kendrick & Goodrich.

As I said, you play with what you have. Who knows what the future holds for any of these guys. The ones on the field last night have to step up and perform or it is obvious we will continue to have these secondary discussions. I know these guys are young and inexperienced but that was a real deal game and I just think we should have looked sharper. I'm telling you, regardless of how strong the rest of the D is, if we had played a superior offense last night we would have gotten absolutely flamed.

Best Is The Standard


Re: What??***

What...what? So you don't think a top rated QB and set of receivers would have smoked that secondary last night? I'm not bashing, just observing and tbh a bit concerned.

Is Wake Better than South Carolina?


Sep 13, 2020, 4:18 PM

Hmmmm.

Wake's won more games over the past four years, had a better year in 2019, won 2 of 3 bowl games, and has more consistent and what looks like better coaching. Last year UNC beat SC and lost to Wake. Wake lost to Clemson at at home yesterday 37-13. The last time South Carolina took the field, the ##### lost to Clemson 38-3 at home in Columbia.


Neither team is usually very good but you can make a plausible argument that Wake has a stronger program and has played better football than South Carolina since Muschamp got to Columbia. Given the perspective most SC fans have about their program being compared to Wake Forest, it must really hurt that the comparison is certainly apples to apples. Well maybe it's grapes to grapes, but you know what I mean.

Hard to tell after only one game (and for some teams, no games) who is a good team and who is a horrible team. A few more weeks will help sort things out. We need information feedback to determine something like that.
