Wake Forest 25, Army 11: Senior Josh Harris rushed for 96 yards and a pair of second-half touchdowns as the visiting Demon Deacons shook off some offensive troubles to pull away from the Black Knights.
Tanner Price was held to 6-of-17 and 132 yards passing for Wake Forest (2-2), but he connected with Michael Campanaro for a 66-yard scoring strike in the second quarter. Price ran for a career-best 66 yards and Campanaro, who caught 16 passes last week, had four receptions for 91 yards.
Terry Baggett rushed for a career-high 125 yards to lead Army’s ground attack, which ranked seventh in the nation coming into the game. The Black Knights (1-3) had a safety and three Daniel Grochowski field goals before getting stopped inside the Wake Forest 5-yard line in the game’s final seconds.
Price, who did not complete a pass until midway through the second quarter, found Campanaro over the middle and the senior zipped down the right sideline for the game's first touchdown with 1:28 left in the first half. Army responded with a 39-yard field goal from Grochowski, set up by Baggett’s 51-yard run, and the Black Knights trailed 10-5 at halftime.
A pair of field goals by Grochowski gave Army the lead before the Demon Deacons went 75 yards in five plays, capped by Harris’ 15-yard scoring run with 1:42 left in the third. Harris put Wake Forest up two scores on a 6-yard run one series later with 9:01 left in the contest.
