Wake Forest University's football team has been placed 13th in the most recent College Football Playoff rankings released on November 11, 2026.
The Demon Deacons earned the ranking following a victory over the California Golden Bears on October 17, 2026, at California Memorial Stadium in Berkeley. Running back Ty Clark III scored a touchdown in that game, celebrated with tight end Dominick Barry.
The playoff rankings determine the four teams that will compete for the national championship.
