- Wake Forest is looking to get one win closer to bowl eligibility when the Demon Deacons host the Boston College Eagles on Saturday afternoon at BB&T Field.
- Boston College leads the all-time series between the two teams 10-7-2.
- Since the teams renewed the series in 2003, each of the nine games have been decided by 10 points or fewer.
- The Deacons are coming off a 42-13 loss to No. 14-ranked Clemson last Thursday in Winston-Salem. Despite the setback, Wake Forest needs just two more wins in its final four games to qualify for a bowl game for the second-straight year.
- Last week, the Deacons had all they could handle against one of the top teams in the country. Clemson built a 35-0 advantage in the first half behind five touchdown passes from Tajh Boyd and then held off Wake Forest in the second half.
- Quarterback Tanner Price hit fullback Tommy Bohanon with an eight-yard touchdown strike with 12 seconds remaining in the first half, and the duo hooked up again on an 18-yard touchdown with 7:45 in the third quarter to cut the deficit to 35-13.
- Price went 27-for-43 on the game for 232 yards and a pair of touchdown passes. Bohanon caught three passes for 29 yards, including the two scores. He now has five touchdown catches in the past four games.
- Flanker Michael Campanaro returned to the lineup after missing the previous two games with a broken hand and had a productive day with six catches and 52 yards.
- Terence Davis led the receiving corps with seven catches for 84 yards. On the ground, Josh Harris carried the ball 10 times for 76 yards.
Next Up
- Wake Forest will head back out on the road for its final two road trips of the season.
- Next Saturday, the Deacons will face NC State at Carter-Finley Stadium in Raleigh, NC.
- Wake Forest has won five of the last seven meetings with the Wolfpack.
- On Nov. 17, the Deacons will travel to South Bend, Ind. to take on Notre Dame.
