Wake Forest defeated Utah State 46-10 on Saturday, and in doing so dominated every facet of the game over the Aggies. The Deacs saw a 14 spot improvement in S&P Ratings, and currently sit at 36th in the nation.
If the pre-season rankings were removed (which they absolutely should not be for anchoring purposes), then Wake Forest would be ranked 5th in the nation. Needless to say, the Deacs have looked pretty damn good so far this season.
As I wrote last week, I plan to review the Five Factors that Bill Connelly releases each week.
