The underwhelming offense of the Wake Forest Demon Deacons (2-3) will probably have a hard time moving the ball on Saturday afternoon when they face the #1 Florida State Seminoles (4-0). The Seminoles crushed the Demon Deacons 59-3 last season.

Wake Forest only put up a total of 100 yards against Louisville on Saturday afternoon and ended up losing 201-10 on the road. The Demon Deacons had minus-22 yards rushing in the loss and converted just two of their 16 third down opportunities. They are currently one of the worst rushing teams in the country with just 29.2 rushing yards per game.

Wake Forest linebacker Brandon Chubb leads his team in tackles this year with 43 and he has one sack. Quarterback John Wolford has completed 59.2 percent of his passes for 1,005 yards with six touchdowns and 10 interceptions.

Over the weekend, Florida State looked like they might lose their first game of the year early on in their matchup with NC State, but they had a strong second half and ended up winning 56-41. The Seminoles turned the ball over four times in that game, but they were able to put up 531 yards. FSU is currently 15th in the country in passing with 330.8 yards per game.

Seminoles wide receiver Rashad Greene has three touchdown receptions this year and he is fifth in the country in receiving yards with 543. Running back Karlos Williams has averaged 4.8 yards per carry this year and has 303 yards with five touchdowns.
