Apparently we can't find the last non-conference opponent to come play us at Groves next year. I'm sure our esteemed athletic director will come up with a terrible solution and try to pawn it off on us as a great achievement.

I thought we were playing USF at home next year

No worries, it's all strategy. We are just angling for our future as a minor conference team serving as homecoming fodder for real athletic programs.

 

[Deacfreak07]

We have even spoken with other ACC teams about playing a game as non-conference opponents.

Seems like this would be a good move for the other conference teams looking to add last minute. No one wants to go on the road, probably.

 

[YoungBuck95]

Fine by me. I don't wanna sit thru the games when we suck as hard as we do.

But for some reason, I have to buy tix.

We are based on things I've heard too.

I'm glad to hear him say this:

Because we are already playing a Football Championship Subdivision team in Presbyterian, we can only consider Football Bowl Subdivision opponent

How much are ticket prices going to go up for just 5 games?

 

[Wakeforest22890]

Just play a road game against the shittiest team possible and try to add a W.

 

[SkinsNDeacs]

I know they (we) are an FCS team but what about App?

 

[Wakeforest22890]

I mean, he explicitly stated that because we're already playing Presby we're not even looking at FCS schools.

 

[Sgt Hulka]

The other teams we approached probably wanted to play on a Tuesday, knowing what a disadvantage that puts us in.

 

[SkinsNDeacs]

Yeah...saw that after I posted

Excuses for a Losing Record in 2013

1) Young team

2) Injuries

3) 7 road games

Traitor. You want to see Wake get beat by App don't you so you can rub it in the noses of all the people on here who talk junk about App.

 

[wake]

Hell we might as well go be canon fodder for an SEC team and collect a big check from them like all the FCS schools do, lord knows the athletic department is going to need the money if they keep up at their current pace.

Not really...I hated that game. But it would be a nice non-conference game if we can't get a big name program. Would sell a lot of tickets.

 

[Deacsfan27]

We never had 5 home games during any of my four years at WF....and we only had 4 home games one time. The other three years we had 3 home games.

You know things change over time right?

Just messing with you since I seem to recall you saying went to school there. I'd like to see us start playing them again. But I think most on here are glad we aren't playing them.
