Wake Forest’s future is bright

Wake Forrest has also won three straight bowl games and have not had a losing record to end the season since 2015. They have not won a ton of games but the Demon Deacons have been consistent and has become a respectable program.

Head coach David Clawson is building a strong program and he looks to have his best season yet this year.

Wake Forest is trying to do what they did back in 2006 when the Demon Deacons posted an 11–2 record and won their first ACC championship in 36 years. However, unlike in 2006, Clawson and Wake Forest want to be the best football team in the state of North Carolina and have consistent winning seasons moving forward.
