Their Sunday starter would be the second best pitcher on our team.

you act like the ACC isn’t a great baseball conference. They’ve also beaten a solid coastal team.

They also lost to that same Coastal team

I will say they dont really have any bad losses and they have played some tough in conference series.

Probably, I don't know enough about the conference they play in and if the umps have shrunk the strike zone as the SEC umps have. Based on their stats, they have guys that are studs.

I think we should just give them the respect they deserve and let things fall how they may. I know for one they are capable of beating anyone they play just like we are.

LSU lost to UL who lost two to Coastal if we’re playing that game.

They’ve played some really good teams and done well that’s my point. Yes they have some more shitty opponents than SEC teams too.

They are very good. I’ve watched them 5-6 times. They aren’t as good as the Tigers

Pitching is legit. 4 or 5 guys in the top 25 nationally in ERA. Their schedule isn't SEC tough, but the ACC is usually a top end baseball conference so they aren't playing cupcake teams.

Wake Forest will destroy everyone in the SEC. They are 1000% fresher than any SEC team. Less injuries, less distraction, better pitchers with less baggage. Happens every year.

Must be why the ACC has so many titles lately and the SEC doesn’t.

Yah they are really good, excellent like damn freakin good in their conference. Acc baseball sux lately in baseball over the years. I would say Wake wont lose too many more of their regular season games by their schedule. Just wait til they put on their big boy pants and got to play some real teams in the post season.

Wake is overrated. LSU will roll right over them en route to the natty this year.

I haven’t seen them play this year and anyone can beat anyone on a given day, but they’re the only team in ncaa baseball I think could be better than LSU.

Their pitching stats are off the charts. They can roll out 3 different starters that have a better ERA than Skenes and are the only team with a better scoring margin and record than us. The ACC is the second best conference and they’re in the Carolinas so it’s not like they’re padding stats against weak competition. I’d bet heavily on LSU and WF being the #1 & #2 national seeds come selection day.
