The Wake Forest preview expects Ty Clark III back for Louisville. Jake Dickert says moving defensive fronts may call for more gap and zone run looks and a commitment to early-down rushing; those are matchup intentions, not a confirmed new package or Clark workload.

The Wake Forest preview expects Gio Lopez to play at Louisville and says accounts inside the program do not anticipate a mobility limit. It also describes Tolu Olajide's pass-protection trouble against Miami. That is reporter-supplied expectation and prior-game assessment, not independent medical clearance or a new tackle assignment.

The Wake Forest-Louisville preview says Louisville has allowed 4.5 rushing yards on first down and 4.2 on second after Ole Miss and SMU found ground success. These are observed early-down defensive vulnerabilities, not a forecast of Wake Forest's rushing output.

Against SMU, Louisville left tackle Anwar O'Neal struggled with hand placement, center Lance Robinson with interior pressure, and right tackle Cason Henry with RPOs despite better true-pass sets, according to the preview. These are observed protection issues, not an announced lineup change or Wake Forest sack forecast.
