It ended up taking five extra minutes, but ultimately the Seminoles of Florida State were triumphant in their return to the court following a two-week layoff. Wake Forest overcame a 13-point second half deficit to take a late lead, but Scottie Barnes’ buzzer-beating layup sent it into OT and FSU pulled away from there for the 92-85 victory. The win brings the 17th ranked Seminoles to 11-3 on the season, 7-2 in ACC play.
M.J. Walker and Wyatt Wilkes popped back to back threes to open the game to give FSU six quick points.
