Wake Forest head coach Jake Dickert post-Louisville win press conference
- Dickert said Wake Forest quarterback Gio Lopez practiced little before Thursday and the staff limited some of his quarterback-run use at Louisville. He felt Lopez came out of the game well and expected a fuller run package next week; that is the coach's expectation, not medical clearance or a confirmed future workload.
- Dickert credited Wake Forest back Clark's physical rushing at Louisville and said the offense used gap and zone runs against a defense it believed vulnerable on the ground. He praised the offensive line's work in that game but did not announce a lasting backfield workload or a new blocking package.
- Dickert said Wake Forest's Carlos Hernandez has become a productive short-catch, downfield and punt-return playmaker through four weeks and that he and Gio Lopez are in sync. This is the coach's evaluation after Louisville, not a new target quota or guaranteed return assignment.
