Kickoff Time

There is nothing quite like it.

Cooling temperatures, sunburn from early games where sunscreen was forgotten, clear blue fall skies, tailgating with friends, the anticipation of the game, a football fever overtakes all of the men in our lives (and some of the women). It is college football season in the South.

I am delighted to find that Wake Forest is on ABC, and I can watch them play Baylor from the comfort of the sofa.

But there is nothing like being at Groves Stadium/BB&T field and watching the Deacons surprise us all as they transform Wake from a basketball school to a football school. I think my like of the school turned into love at the Orange Bowl as we played Louisville. Right now, I would give a lot to be with our friends at the stadium in Winston-Salem taking it all in in the sweet, little family-friendly stadium. Next week we will be there, cheering on the Deacs.

And Baylor just scored...I must focus my cheerleading abilities on the Deacs.

As we have taught Wiley to sing "Rah, Rah Wake Forest Rah!"
