Clemson wins 13th straight over No. 13 Wake Forest, 48-27

Associated Press  

The AP Top 25 college football poll is back every week throughout the season! “It was just the right time to pull it out.” Clemson, which won its 34th straight at home, also kept its hopes of a seventh straight trip to the ACC title game alive with the stunning rout of Wake Forest. Still, Wake Forest remains in the divisional driver’s seat and can make its first championship game appearance in 15 years by beating Boston College next Saturday. “You tell me we’re 9-2 and going to Boston College playing for an ACC championship,” Demon Deacons quarterback Sam Hartman said. “I can’t tell you I wouldn’t be excited about it.” For the Tigers to reach the title game, they would need Wake Forest to lose to BC and have No.
