Unit matchups: who wins each side of the ball
Read it by possession: each side shows what happens when that team has the ball — its offense against the other team's defense, unit by unit (national rank in parentheses). Last season's grades, shrunk toward average by how much of each unit's production actually returns. Akron returns 90% of last season's passing production and 100% of its rushing production. Wake Forest returns 18% of last season's passing production and 5% of its rushing production. Akron's projected line: 4 of 5 held over, 1 portal; Wake Forest's projected line: 2 of 5 held over, 3 portal.
