The Demon Deacons dismantled Stanford 57-3 behind a dominant performance from Wake quarterback Gio Lopez. Lopez controlled the game entirely, accounting for five total touchdowns, including 265 passing yards for two scores and 88 rushing yards with a career-high three rushing touchdowns on 12 carries. The Wake Forest defensive unit completely stifled the Cardinal attack, creating two turnovers via a fumble recovery and an interception. Backed by four sacks and nine tackles for loss, the Deacons' defense locked down the trenches to secure a commanding ACC home victory.
