Rivalry: 1-1

Streak: 1, Syracuse

First Meeting: In 2006, Perry Patterson hit Rice Moss for SU’s only touchdown. Micah Andrews led Wake with 142 yards rushing on 20 carries en route to a 20-10 victory in Winston-Salem.

Last Meeting: In 2011, SU rallied from a 15-point deficit in the fourth quarter to force overtime and eventually emerge victorious 36-29. Orange QB Ryan Nassib passed for three touchdowns, including the four-yard winner to Van Chew in the first OT.


School Connections: Hey, remember Derrick Jackson? Wake Forest secondary coach was our DL coach between 2007 and 2009.

Head Coaches: SU: Scott Shafer (1st Year, 3-4), Wake: Jim Grobe (13th Year, 77-78)

Last Year: A 3-1 start looked good but then ACC play really kicked in and the Deacs finished 5-7 (3-5), missing a bowl game for the third time in four years.

"Fear Me, I've Killed Hundreds Of Timelords": The one-two punch of quarterback Tanner Price (1,778 yards, 12 TDs) and wide receiver Michael Campanaro (792 yards, 6 TDs) is one to keep an eye on. If you can. Especially if you're a Syracuse DB. God help you.

Last Game: Wake looked pretty impressive in defeat, losing 24-21 to the No. 7 Miami Hurricanes on the road. Not exactly the kind of game that makes us feel better.

Fun Fact: Since Scott Shafer joined the Orange in 2009, Syracuse is 4-2 in games following an open week. If you include bowl games, that becomes 6-2.
