At first, this had all the signs of a terrible Florida State loss.
Wake Forest out-gained FSU 190-80 in the first quarter in terms of total yards and held a 10-0 lead early in the game. But the Seminoles rebounded as the game went on, using superior athletes to create big plays on the offensive side of the ball.
Defensively, the ’Noles began to shut down Wake Forest’s freshman quarterback late in the game. Although Wake Forest was able to create some explosive plays early in the game, FSU made adjustments and dominated for most of the game.
