Here’s how you can watch Saturday afternoon’s game between the Wake Forest Demon Deacons and the Army Black Knights.

The Wake Forest Demon Deacons and the Army Black Knights combined to start this season 7-0, but since then they’ve lost two out of three games and three out of four games, respectively. Wake Forest (5-2) is coming off a bye week after a 17-6 loss to Florida State on Oct. 15, and Army (4-3) lost 35-18 to North Texas last Saturday.

Army’s option attack is directed by quarterback Ahmad Bradshaw, who has 496 rushing yards (two 100-yard games) and four touchdowns on the ground so far this season. Fullback Andy Davidson is the team’s leading rusher, with 113 carries for 615 yards and seven touchdowns, and wide receivers Christian and Edgar Poe have combined to catch 14 of Army’s 34 pass completions this season.

The Black Knights have had a stifling defense so far this season, ranking top-10 in the country in total defense (256 yards per game’ third), passing defense (154.9 yards per game; third), run defense (101.0 yards per game, eighth) and scoring defense (17.0 points per game).

Wake Forest’s calling card is also defense, as the Demon Deacons are tied for 16th in the country in scoring defense (17.9 points per game) along with having the 20th-best run defense nationally (119.3 yards per game). The Demon Deacons have been more vulnerable to the pass, allowing a little more than 259 yards per game through the air (96th in the country), but they may be out of the woods this week with run-oriented Army only attempting 74 passes thus far.

Wake Forest has a bit of a dual threat quarterback too. John Wolford has a 105.7 passer rating so far this season, with more rushing (five) than passing (three) touchdowns. The Demon Deacons don’t have an explosive offense, but they are very well-balanced, with three players that have more than 60 rush attempts and five guys that have at least 10 receptions.

Wake Forest can clinch bowl eligibility with a win, while Army would get close if it comes out on top, so expect this to be an under the radar pick as one of the week’s more hard-fought affairs.
