The Wake Forest Demon Deacon sports blog where Charlie Brown is still trying to kick that football...
Everyone’s favorite basketball metric is back, as the NET rankings for the 2025-26 season have officially been released. The Deacs are currently ranked #56 and are likely being boosted by a 1-point overtime loss to the current #1 team in the NET, the Michigan Wolverines. Wake’s highest NET ranking in the 2024-25 season was #58, […]
That was not the ending to the regular season Wake Forest was hoping for. With a 10-win season still in the cards for the Deacs, Wake played maybe their worst game of the season, constantly shooting themselves in the foot to play themselves right out of what was a very winnable game. That simply did […]

It wasn’t pretty, but the Deacs moved to 6-2 after taking down the Northeastern Huskies by a score of 86-73. The first half was definitely not the Wake Forest team we have come to expect this season. That is sort of expected since it is the day after Thanksgiving, but the Deacs just seemed kind […]

The Deacs have a pretty big game this weekend against in-state rival Duke with some pretty big implications for both teams—Duke can keep their ACC Championship Game hopes alive with a win (they will still need a lot of help to get there) and Wake can get to 9 wins for the 4th time in […]

I don’t really have much to say about this one—that was an absolutely beat down. Wake Forest dominated the Camels the entire game, leading by as much as 51 points in the 2nd half, to grab their 5th win of the season in blowout fashion. This game was over as soon as it got going. […]

The Wake Forest Demon Deacons (11-5-4) saw their season come to an end on Thursday at DeMartin Stadium in a 1-0 defeat to the Michigan State Spartans (15-3-6). With this result, the Spartans moved onto the Round of 16 for the third straight year, and, after defeating the Colorado Buffaloes 2-1 earlier today, they moved […]
Wake Forest picked up their 8th win of the season after destroying the Fightin’ Blue Hens 52-14. That marks just the 11th season in program history that Wake will finish with 8+ wins and just the 7th time Wake has won 8 or more games in the regular season. This game was not close at […]

What a finish! Wake managed to pull off the improbable buzzer beating 3-point shot with 1 second on the clock—for the second night in a row! The Deacs ran the exact same play they ran last night against Texas Tech and got the exact same result, only this time, the shot actually mattered. Down by […]

Well, that felt like Deja vu. After being down double digits for much of the first half, the Deacs turned things around and managed to take command of the game through most of the second half, only to lose the lead and once again come up 1 point short of a signature win. It was […]
The Wake Forest Demon Deacons (11-4-4) will travel to East Lansing this evening to take on the Michigan State Spartans (13-3-6) in the second round of the NCAA Tournament.

It is the final home game of the 2025 football season, and the Deacs are taking on a Delaware team that has done pretty well for their first ever season in FBS. At 5-5, the Fightin’ Blue Hens would be playing for bowl eligibility on Saturday if they weren’t on year 2 of their FBS […]

With the victory, the Deacs moved to 9-0-3 on the season at home in what will likely be their final game at Spry this year. It is the 16th […]
The Deacs picked up win number 3 today after blowing out UMass Lowell by 34 points. This is going to be a pretty quick recap, because this game was not close at all. Wake started the game a little sluggish, which is to be expected in a Sunday afternoon game. The River Hawks hung around […]

The Deacs keep rolling! Wake Forest picked up their 7th win of the season tonight, taking down rival UNC by a score of 28-12. At 4-3 in the ACC, the Deacs have won 4 conference games for the first time since going 7-1 in 2021. This game went pretty much as expected—a low scoring, defensive […]
