Have we lost to them two years in a row? Christ. Duke is bad this year. I doubt we lose to them.
They were bad the past two years too. But yeah, we should beat them... probably will be sloppy as others have predicted (if the rumor is tru)

Hey whatever keeps the optics good for us. Each time they show a graphic of the top 10 we in there!
I get it but it’s optics with no substance. Do we really believe Cincy and BYU belong in the top 10? Of course not. Miami hasn’t beaten anyone in the top 25, let alone in the top 10. Miami is in desperate need for credibility and WF would have been a good test.

Wake is 4-3 and is Wake Forest. There is nothing to be gained by beating Wake Forest. No one is gonna say "oh wow look at that top 10 Miami beat Wake Forest on the road". It holds the same level of credibility of beating Duke for pundits and more importantly recruits. It might help your internal "Does Diaz suck" formula but it means nothing in terms of the macro view of the program. We didn't beat anyone of substance in Richt's first year either until the bowl game against an outmatched West Virginia team. Helped get the 15 game winning streak going and helped recruiting. @Liberty City El has painted the picture perfectly for everyone. Win as many games as you can against whoever. Even if its the dregs of the ACC. Then go win a New Year's Six bowl game. Recruit. Then try to stack another 10 win season on it next year. Recruit. Then see where you are.

Literally everyone thinks Cincy and BYU belong in the top 25 lol the media, the coaches, the analytics, the smart money in Vegas. They are both obviously among the 25 best teams in America.

And the second part of your post is equally ludicrous. I don't think a win over Wake Forest has ever given a team credibility lol.

Louisville was ranked 18th when we played them.
