Big 4 Championship
With wins over UNC, NC State & Duke in football this season, the Deacs won the Big 4 Championship for the eighth time in program history and now boast a record of 30-18 against those ACC rivals since the turn of the century.
In addition during that time period, Wake Forest is 43-18 against all in-state opponents.

All-ACC Deacs
Wake Forest placed a school record 14 players on the 2019 All-ACC football team and were represented by three players on the first team, including wide receiver Sage Surratt, defensive end Carlos "Boogie" Basham, Jr., and placekicker Nick Sciba.
Punter Dom Maggio was a second team selection while wide receiver Kendall Hinton, left tackle Justin Herron, right guard Nate Gilliam and cornerback Essang Bassey were all third team picks.
Wake Forest had six players earn honorable mention in quarterback Jamie Newman, tight end Jack Freudenthal, right tackle Jake Benzinger, center Zach Tom, linebacker Justin Strnad and safety Nasir Greer.
