Wake Forest’s Scotty Washington blocked Michael Rubino‘s 39-yard field goal attempt with five seconds remaining as the Demon Deacons held off Appalachian State 20-19 Saturday before the largest crowd ever (35,126) to see a game in Kidd Brewer Stadium.
Several costly mistakes hurt the Mountaineers chance at victory in a wild game that featured six lead changes.
Wake Forest remained undefeated (4-0) with the win, while Appalachian State fell to 2-2.
It also pushed the Demon Deacons to a 16-7 lead in the series, which began in 1975. All previous games were played at Wake Forest.
