Must-See Matchup, Wake Forest offense vs. Miss. St. Defense: Wake passing game vs. Bulldogs pass D

The Deacs have one of the best QB-WR duos in the ACC with sophomore gunslinger Tanner Price and junior receiver Chris Givens – facing the nation’s 23rd ranked pass defense of the Bulldogs.

I still don’t know what that Wake Forest effort was against Vandy to close the season – it looked more than uninspired…really just plain awful. They’re a lot better than that, and that’ll show in Nashville.

The Picks: Brandon Rink – Wake Forest 28-27; Griffin Wong – Miss. St. 28-13; J.J. Greenstein – Miss. St. 17-14

FSU just sneaking past the number got us back to .500…
