Wake Forest Defense In For Huge Test In Miami

The Wake Forest Demon Deacons have likely played their way out of bowl season, coming into this week with a 4-6 record and entering this game against Miami as huge underdogs. But it will be interesting to see if the Demon Deacons will come out and play their best football with their backs against the wall as it pertains to qualifying for a bowl game. On defense, that will mean finding a way to contain Cam Ward and prevent him from extending plays with his legs, something that not many teams in college football have been able to do this season.

Miami Faces a Must-Win Situation

Two weeks ago, the Miami Hurricanes suffered their first loss of the 2024 college football season, losing 28-23 on the road against Georgia Tech. The Hurricanes offense struggled for most of that game, with Cam Ward unable to evade the Georgia Tech pass rush as effectively as he has other defenses. As a result, Miami can't afford another loss, as they need to keep winning to avoid falling behind Clemson for the second spot in the ACC. If Miami doesn't do a better job of protecting Ward this week, we might see that exact scenario play out.

Wake Forest vs Miami Prediction

Miami should be able to win on Saturday without too much trouble, but we aren't sure if they can cover the huge point spread in this Wake Forest vs Miami contest. Instead, we are going to take the over in this game, as we expect Miami's offense to bounce back from their disappointing game against Georgia Tech. Meanwhile, Wake Forest will do some scoring of their own against a Miami defense that has been consistently inconsistent in 2024.
