Wake Forest vs Army Game Preview
Why Wake Forest Will Win
The Wake Forest offense should have enough consistent pop to force Army out of its comfort zone.
WKU didn’t get its passing game going until late, Wisconsin didn’t get its passing attack going at all, and no one else on the slate has shown enough offense to bring a whole lot of push.
