Meet Wake Forest, which will sic the Claw on you

Once upon a time, there were Daves across the Mid-American Conference, and they captured the attention of a nation. Indeed, some said that the MAC Daves were bigger than ska music, difficult as that is to imagine today.

Dave Doeren was the first to bring his act to the ACC, taking the job at NC State in 2012. Dave Clawson left Bowling Green for Wake Forest a year later. The Daves both won the MAC title the year before leaving for bigger Davetunities.

Both had a lot of work to do at their new gigs, and in Clawson’s case, that meant first constructing an offensive line that could in fact block other human beings.
