The Wake Forest defense will be under new leadership on Saturday after head coach Dave Clawson announced the firing of Jay Sawvel. My guess is that it will be defensive line coach Dave Cohen calling plays against Rice, but that’s another story for another time. For now our focus is on the offense that that defense will face on Saturday.
Shawn Stankavage, a senior from Durham, is the starting quarterback for the Owls. He is 60-103 on the year, and has thrown for 671 yards, 7 touchdowns, and 4 interceptions. He averages 6.52 yards per attempt and has a QB rating of 127.
