Miami’s first true test of the season arrives as they hit the road to face Wake Forest — a physical, talented squad under new coach Jake Dickert and quarterback Gio Lopez. After easy wins, Miami needs this road victory to prove they’re contenders, with Wake’s defense led by sack machine Langston Hardy and a returning Carlos Hernandez at receiver. Miami’s firepower should overpower Wake’s thin secondary, setting the tone for a strong ACC season.

Tampa Catholic’s elite three-star cornerback Carl Jones Jr. just committed to Wake Forest, choosing the Demon Deacons over USF, UConn, and UCF. Ranked 999 overall in the 2027 class but a top-100 corner nationally, Jones is one of Florida’s most coveted recruits. Coach Jake Dickert’s official visit sealed the deal, boosting Wake Forest’s class to 17 commits and a national No. 60 ranking. On the field, Jones dazzles with speed and playmaking—32 tackles, 16 pass deflections, and 3 interceptions as a junior, plus kick return threat. This is a major win for Wake Forest, setting the stage for a standout defensive back in the ACC.
