Because they run the conference. The Triangle schools served up Wake as a sacrificial lamb.

Here is a photo of UNC, Duke, and NC State lobbying for Wake Forest-Clemson to be the ONLY ACC game to feature an NC team vs. a SC team:

Playing a team like Wagner would not help us one bit. It’s akin to playing Savannah State. The competition is so ****** that you learn nothing about your team.

I’m all in favor of playing a G5 school to tune up the offense before conference play. UAB or Temple would be fine because they are decent teams that would force us take the game seriously.

Agree with this.

Our 4th team & Walk-ons would beat Wagner by 60 points.

It's not even that they're just a FCS team because there's some FCS teams that are actually well coached & would be competitive, but Wagner is literally among the 5 worst teams in the FCS with LIU, Texas Southern, Eastern Illinois & Western Illinois. JUCO school Blinn College would beat them by 4 TD's.

Idk if travel is an issue or if the other G5 teams would turn the game down, but it's way more important for our team to play a competitive game against either UAB or Temple rather than Wagner.

Need to make one of those G5 games happen, or try something else like an in-state G5 game, it's not worth the time, money or risk playing Wagner.

G5s like the exposure and the money would be right. UAB seems to fall intp that category.

makes sense on the legal aspect of it. you have contracts with 3 schools (two of which youre gonna have to agree to a buyout). limit the money spent by scheduling one of the original 3

pretty sure the contracts have a force majeure clause and A global pandemic would apply
 
My prediction would be UAB, but comes down to who can make it more easily. UAB could theoretically bus it, which may be the better option than having to fly (more likely in Temple's case).

We have an entire new offensive system to install... And we’ve only had 4 spring practices. I hope we will be ready

You f4 get were actually doing installs right now! And, they been in the playbook the whole time, were about to start fall camp shortly. So that part of your post shouldn't be a problem(hopefully).😉😏
