No. 7 Miami escapes Wake Forest with TD in final minute

MIAMI GARDENS, Fla. -- Miami put its last-minute comeback hopes into Duke Johnson 's hands, and he delivered. Twice, actually. Johnson ran for two fourth-quarter touchdowns, the second a 1-yard plunge with 53 seconds left, as No. 7 Miami beat Wake Forest 24-21 on Saturday to remain unbeaten and cap a wild week of emotions. The NCAA mess that overshadowed Miami for 2½ years finally ended on Tuesday, and four days later, Johnson made sure there was cause for a second celebration. "I wanted the ball," Johnson said. "So I went to coach, and we talked about it, and coach said 'We're going to put it in your hands.'" Smart move, Al Golden. Johnson had 30 rushes -- eight more than his previous collegiate best -- and finished with 168 yards.
