4.  Defending Greg Dortch

Wake Forest’s offense has been very good thus far.

They’ve put up some points and been very efficient. A lot of that has to do with the talent and explosiveness of wide receiver Greg Dortch.

Last season, Dorian O’Daniel was tasked with handling Dortch. He was beaten on a few occasions, but did enough to get the job done.

This year, I’d expect Isaiah Simmons to get that assignment. Can Simmons keep up with Dortch and make the plays needed for the Tigers to be successful in pass coverage?

It certainly will be an interesting match up to watch within the game.
