9/1 vs. Liberty

2011 Record: 7-4

Bio: The Flames are an above-average FBS team under head coach Turner Gill (yes, the former Kansas coach). First year quarterback Gabe Henderson will be under center and will be without All-Conference 1,000 receiver Chris Summers. The focal point of their offense is senior running back Aldreakis Allen, who had 958 total yards last season. He finished the season on a tear with five straight games over 100 total yards, albeit against the likes of Coastal Carolina and VMI.

Most of the Flames' top defenders return from last season. The cornerback duo of last year's leading tackler Chris Mayo and Brent Vinson should lead a strong secondary. Francis Bah, from Germany, lead the team in sacks last season and should be force in the FBS. The linebacking core possesses strength and depth, as well.

Outlook: The Flames will be one of the better FBS teams next year, but the Demon Deacons are in the ACC. Purely based on measurables (size, speed, strength), Wake Forest completely outmatches Liberty. Wake Forest will have no trouble with Liberty at home, but expect the Demon Deacons to come prepared because Turner Gill remains one of the better coaches around.

They called us FBS

They sent me a tracking # I checked it. It says I'll get them on the 29th so that's cutting it close.

I was told the 30th. Got them today.

[Rooster Cogburn]

Pretty sure I'm not going to be able to make it unfortunately. Wish I could, just can't swing it.

[Cider Jim]

WHAT???

First year quarterback Gabe Henderson will be under center

[jimflamesfan]

I got my tickets today, too. I have to give props to the Fedex person. I wasn't home, but somehow he/she managed to slide them under the door into the house.

"Flames will Be one of the Better FBS teams next year"??? That article either has lots of mistakes or they have tons of inside information.

Great to hear

Got my 4 tix in the mail last Friday. We will be on the third row making some noise. Can't wait to upset Weak Florist.

We also still have tickets available for the game itself and we are now selling parking.

GO FLAMES!

Hi Flames Fans. I lived in Winston-Salem before moving up to Lynchburg and wanted to suggest a few places to eat before the WFU game (for those not tailgating or eating at the Flames Club tent).

Putter's is a half mile up from the stadium and is good for burgers, cheese steaks, chix fingers, etc. http://bit.ly/PYk9mT or the Village Tavern is another great spot three miles from BB&T Field (http://bit.ly/PcUtPo). Look forward to seeing a lot of RED in the stands next Saturday! Go Flames!

I'd definitely recommend Village Tavern as well. Also, Foothills and Mellow Mushroom are downtown which isn't far away.

[SuperJon]

Foothills Brewing downtown is great as well.

Haven't received an email yet ... but .... if I had to guess I bet the Flames Club pregame meal will be catered by http://www.redhotandblue.com/catering.htm

Around the Wake Forest football team, they’re marveling at running back Josh Harris again.

The defense dominated Wake Forest's second scrimmage of the preseason on Tuesday morning.

I thought Seeing Double was their only double IPA? Either way, Seeing Double is very good. I really liked the Sexual Chocolate as well. Most of their other brews that I've had are pretty good, but nothing that special. I've heard good things about Hoppyum, but haven't had it.
