- Today's game captains for Wake Forest are #12 Tarence Williams and #25 Ed Kargbo-Okorogie.
- It didn't take long for redshirt freshman Jason Anderson to keep his streak going of consecutive games with a reception. He caught a 11-yarder from James MacPherson on Wake's first offensive series of the game, extending his streak to seven games (every game of his collegiate career).
- Tarence Williams put Wake' first touchdown on the board with a four- yard run in the second quarter. It was the 13th touchdown of his career and sixth of the season. Williams has scored at least one touchdown in five of seven games this year.
- Tight end Ray Thomas set up Williams' touchdown with a 26-yard reception that moved the Deacons inside the 10-yard line. It was a career-long reception for Thomas, and the longest completion by a Wake tight end since former Deacon Rhamen Love-Lane had a 26-yard reception against App State in last year's season opener.
- Walk-on Chris Rolle, making the fourth appearance of his career as the Deacons' punter, enjoyed a career-best day, averaging 43.3 yards on three punts and booting a career-long of 47 yards in the first quarter. All three of his punts were 40 yards or better.
- Defensive end Nate Bolling recorded three tackles for loss against the Tigers, moving him into a tie for sixth place on Wake's all-time tackles-for- loss chart with 32 career TFL. Former Deacon Mike McCrary is WFU's all-time tackles-for-loss leader with 46.
- Although he was forced to leave the game with a sprained ankle midway through the third quarter, Tarence Williams' 37 yards on the ground pushed him over the career 1,400-yard mark and moved him into 18th place on Wake's all- time rushing list with 1,402 career yards.
- Another young Deacon has started a streak of his own, as sophomore running back Fred Staton has scored at least one touchdown in each of the last four games. After recording his first career touchdown against Florida State on Sept. 29, he also scored one against NC State, two at Duke and one today.
