Can WF Make it Into The CFB
Nov 1, 2021, 3:15 PM
|

final 4 if they win out 13-0 and ACC champs?
I say yes. Eric Mac Lain, says yes, also. He says there is no way they leave an undefeated ACC conference champ out.
It would be great to have an ACC team in the playoffs.
They would definitely be the Cinderella team and would have a big following just for that reason.
Matching WF against Cincy and Bama against to be announced team would set up a Goliath vs David match that would have a huge tv audience just to see how the underdog does against the Goliath.
Might be over after 1st qtr., but still worth tuning in. Plus, we would finally get a share of revenue produced by another acc team.

Barring something unforeseen...

the four CFP teams are going to be Georgia, Bama, Ohio State and Oklahoma. Michigan State or Oregon could be a spoiler and play their way in. Cincinnati doesn't get in IMO. At 103rd, their SOS ranking is just too low.

I think Bama would have to lose big to Georgia to keep them out. If Georgia loses a close one to Bama, they are in. Ohio State could get left out if they have another loss.That might be the ticket an undefeated Wake would have.

I NEVER MAKE PREDICTIONS, because, just like a lot of no=knowledge fans who post on here were saying on Tiger Boards before the season began, " we are going to beat the pants, crap, etc. out of Georgia! Well how did that work out for us. But I am going out on a limb here, Clemson will beat Wake,

The short answer is no. Actually that's the long answer also. There's no way an undefeated WF leapfrogs three or four one loss teams. If WF had a chance they would already be ranked in the top 4. Are they? Nope.

Preseason and mid season rankining mean nothing. Good lord you people are clueless.

I don't think they are going to win 13, probably 11 or 12 at
Nov 1, 2021, 5:04 PM

most. Sorry, looking at their schedule and how much they have given up on the ground, I think they lose big in Death Valley as long as at least 2 of our 3 excellent rb's are in the game. If all 3 are available, I would like to see Mafah and Pace alternate at rb, and Shipley used as slot more.

I think so. IF they can go 13-0.

Back before the CFP days, no one ever thought Wake could win the ACC and get to the Orange Bowl…but they did.

If they had a Texas ATM or Norte Dame type win on their schedule then maybe Georgia is the only team that is going to get credit for beating Clemson this season.

13-0 vs no ranked opponents, with their roster?

No and they shouldn't be. Maybe in a 16 team playoff-

The other question is “How would WF do if they actually got in the playoffs?”
Nov 1, 2021, 11:03 PM

I think it would be inhumane to match them against a Bama or a UGA.

Absolutely, they would 100% be in.

The reason they aren’t ranked higher are because they are Wake Forest and no one believes they are elite.
However, if they win out and are an undefeated AC champion, they will be in the playoffs for sure. An undefeated power 5 conference champion will not be left out of the playoffs.

Yep this is wake forest and Georgia's year. There is no way anyone with a normal brain watching all our games thinks we are beating them this year. They easily go undefeated into the playoffs. We likely lose 2 more games too.

If so, there are not multiple teams in playoff. So I think they make it.
