Freshman receiver Emeka Emezie tried to reach out at the goal line and give N.C. State a late comeback win at Wake Forest.
Demetrius Kemp wouldn’t let it happen.
Kemp forced a fumble right before Emezie scored the potential game-winning touchdown to secure a 30-24 win for Wake Forest over the 19th-ranked Wolfpack.
Wake Forest (7-4, 4-3 ACC) ended a three-game losing streak to the Wolfpack with three touchdown passes by quarterback John Wolford (247 passing yards) to receiver Tabari Hines (eight catches for 139 yards).
