Live from Wake
When Josh Adams, bottled up entirely in the first quarter, bolted for an 83-yard TD, he delivered the longest run by any Deacon since the school-record jaunt of 90 yards by Freddie Summers against Maryland on Nov. 2, 1968.
Longest Wake runs
90 Freddie Summers vs. Maryland, 11/2/68
89 Tony Gallovich at MIami, 106/39
87 John Mackovic at Virginia, 9/19/64
83 Josh Adams vs. Florida State, 10/11/07
83 Dickie Davis vs. North Carolina, 10/27/51

The Seminole defense is not being fooled by Wake's trickery. FSU has already thwarted two reverses for losses and has made four tackles for loss overall against the Deacon running game.

They just finished a curiously officiated first quarter. Let's just say the ACC video staff and the league's supervisor of officials will be busy trying to ascertain what happened.
I can't explain it.
