Throughout its history, Wake Forest, the smallest school in the ACC, has competed and defeated the behemoths of the conference and the nation.That, too, is a story too rarely told. Year after year, sports “gurus” predict Wake will finish at the bottom of the conference. Year after year, Wake “upsets” the “experts” predictions, leaving them bewildered, asking, “How did that happen?” Why are the “experts” so often wrong about Wake Forest? Most of what is and has been written about Wake Forest is written with an underlying assumption - a bias, if you will - that Wake is an “underdog,” unable to compete effectively within the ACC.
