It was a bad day from the jump for Virginia Tech. The Hokies received the ball first and came out flat on offense. Wake Forest immediately took advantage behind running back Christian Beal-Smith, who rushed for 129 yards on just 13 attempts.
Sam Hartman would score from nine yards out to give Wake Forest an early 7-0 lead and the Demon Deacons would never look back.
Wake went into halftime with a 20-7 lead and every possession on offense was a struggle for the Hokies.
