Nothing about Miami's defensive front dissuaded Wake Forest from pounding away: The Demon Deacons ran the ball on each of their first 22 plays. Before Saturday, Wake hadn't had more than six consecutive run calls at any point this season. And by halftime, Wake Forest was up to 32 carries, only five shy of its per-game average.
But after the initial drive, Miami chipped away, getting a field goal from Bosher to cut the lead to 7-3, then the 52-yarder from Bosher on the first series of the second half -- after Sam Shields took a handoff on the kick return and got the ball into Wake Forest territory -- to come within 10-6.
A three-and-out by Wake followed, and Marve put together a seven-play, 65-yard drive to give Miami the lead for good.
