The Wake Forest Football program is riding high right now. After coming off an 8-4 season with a bowl game still to play, the Deacs signed coach Dickert to a long-term extension.
The Wake Forest Demon Deacons (8–4, 4–4 ACC) have hit the eight-win mark for the 11th time in program history, and are going to their eighth bowl game in the last 10 seasons.
After a very successful first season under Jake Dickert, 12 Deacons were named to various All-ACC Teams as announced Tuesday afternoon. It marks the ninth straight season that Wake Forest has had six or more players named to the All-ACC teams.
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.
Saturday was a tough night for Wake Forest football. Riding a wave of good feelings with three wins in November, the Demon Deacons came crashing back to Earth with a thud.
Both teams are bowl eligible, and on a day loaded with massive matchups and showdowns, this might be one of the most fun under-the-radar games. Duke got bowl eligible last week with a fantastic late play call, highlighting the win over North Carolina.
Duke and Wake Forest will meet to end the 20025 regular season for both teams, just as they did in 2024. The similarities beyond that make for a much shorter list.
Is there a new standard for success at Wake Forest football? The Demon Deacons are 8-3 with a chance to finish the regular season at nine wins. A bowl win would get them to an even 10.
Rodney Rogers’ Spanish tutor at Wake Forest once said a thread of grace ran through Rogers. And that’s the simplest truth of who he was and how he will be remembered.
Former NBA forward Rodney Rogers passed away Friday at age 54, Wake Forest University announced. Rogers was a Durham, N.C., native and one of the most decorated players in Demon Deacons history.
On the surface, a four-star recruit choosing the Ohio State Buckeyes over the Wake Forest Demon Deacons would seem like a no-brainer. There's so much that goes into it on the recruiting trail, though, so it's not always a guarantee to go the way of the "better" program.
