The Wake Forest Demon Deacons took care of business today against the hapless visiting Rice Owls, getting out to a huge halftime lead en route to a 56-24 victory.
In what was a much-needed win for the Deacs, Sam Hartman to Greg Dortch worked all day, there was sizable improvement on defense, and now the non-conference schedule is completed with Wake improving to 3-2.
The game started a little slowly, as both teams punted on their first possession. However, it was encouraging to see Wake’s defense forcing a three-and-out with good coverage early on.
