ACC 2020 Football Schedule

Wake Forest
Wake Forest has been one of the ACC’s most consistent teams over the last 4 years. The Deacs have averaged 7.5 wins, and have 3 bowl wins during that time. Dave Clawson has done a tremendous job turning the Wake Forest program around. You simply can’t overlook Wake Forest anytime you play them.

Will Go 6-5 (5-5) if:
The offense can put up similar numbers to last year when Wake Forest had a top 15 offense. If QB Jamie Newman had returned to Wake Forest and opted out, it would have been understandable. His decision to leave for Georgia was an odd one at best. He opted out there. In any case that left Same Hartman as the QB. Hartman is a strong replacement, and Wake Forest should be fine at QB. The Deacs will also need to replace Sage Surratt, who will be much difficult to replace than Jamie Newman. The defense may need to let the offense settle a bit, and is lead by NFL prospect Carlos Basham Jr. The schedule is very difficult with Clemson, North Carolina and Notre Dame. Getting to 6-5 will need a bit of luck.

Will Go 3-8 (3-7) if:
Wake Forest starts the season 2-4 or worse. Campbell is probably a win, and Notre Dame / Clemson losses. With NC State, Virginia, Virginia Tech as the other 3 games out of the first 6, Wake Forest needs to win 2 out of those 3 to at least be .500 after six games. If not, the backend of the schedule is 4 out of 5 road games with Miami the lone home game. I don’t like how the schedule sets up for Wake Forest at all. There’s no Sage Surratt on offense, and the defense ranked 84 in the country last season needs a major step forward. This could be a season to forget at Wake Forest if things start going sideways early in the year.
