Sciba's kick lifts No. 24 Wake Forest past Louisville, 37-34

WINSTON-SALEM, N.C. -- , Nick Sciba was ready when Wake Forest set him up with the shot at a winning field goal. He capitalized, just like the rest of these 24th-ranked Demon Deacons sitting atop the Atlantic Coast Conference race. Sciba hit from 29 yards with 22 seconds left to help Wake Forest beat Louisville 37-34 on Saturday, keeping the Demon Deacons unbeaten while ending a two-game skid against the Cardinals. Sam Hartman threw for 324 yards and two touchdowns to lead the offense for the Demon Deacons (5-0, 3-0), who got a huge boost late from Justice Ellison with several chain-moving runs on the go-ahead drive. They had won each of their first four games by comfortable margins, but handled a close game just fine. “We expect to go the distance with almost every team we play,” said receiver Taylor Morin , who had six catches for 122 yards and a 42-yard touchdown.
