'That was a tragicomedy': Looking back at Wake Forest's 6-3 win over Virginia Tech, five years later

Five years ago this month, on a cold, windy and wet Saturday, Virginia Tech and Wake Forest faced off in a regular-season ACC game.

That November 2014 matchup included 18 punts, five missed field goals, four turnovers, one ubiquitous social media meme and exactly zero points at the end of regulation.

The game, which Wake Forest eventually won 6-3 in double overtime, marked a historic moment. It was the first game between power-conference teams to finish scoreless after 60 minutes since 1983 (Oregon-Oregon State's 0-0 tie) and the only FBS game in the past 14 years without points in regulation.
