(NCAAF) Pittsburgh vs. Wake Forest,
Point Spread: 7.00 | -120.00 Wake Forest (Home)
Result: Loss
Pitt and Wake Forest are going to be playing against each other in this game. However, the Panthers and the Demon Deacons are fairly evenly matched compared to what some of the other games have been on the year for these two teams. The defense for the Panthers is not the best as they are giving up 245 yards a game in the air, but have allowed 173 yards a game on the ground. Wake Forest is a team that has been balanced quite a bit as Matt Colburn II has rushed for 739 yards on the year. The throwing game has been led by Sam Hartman who threw for 1984 yards, but he has mainly hit Greg Dortch who has 9 scores and 921 yards. On the season the Wake squad has managed to get 234 yards a game in the air and 219 yards a game on the ground. This has allowed the Demon Deacons to get 32 points a game. When it comes to the defense the Demon Deacons have struggled with 281 yards a game in the air allowed. The rushing defense is giving up 203 yards a game, but what is even worse is the defense is giving up 36 points a game. Wake Forest is playing some decent games on the year, when the defense decides to show up on the day. However, the Demon Deacon are a squad that could see some improvement in this game as the Panthers have had some struggles on the year moving the ball at times. I like the home dog WF in this spot on Saturday.
