One week off Wake's best performance of the season (home loss to Florida State), the Deacs went on the road to Chestnut Hill and took down the Boston College Eagles, 3-0. It ended in very confusing fashion, but it still ended in a Wake Forest victory.
In what is otherwise a rebuilding year, the game felt big. Boston College represented one of the few remaining games where Wake would not be a big underdog. The Deacs played like a team with nothing to lose against Florida State, and Coach Clawson had his team ready to play at Alumni Stadium this week.
