No. 13 Clemson 42, Wake Forest 13: Tajh Boyd had 286 of his school-record 428 passing yards and five touchdowns in the first half alone as the visiting Tigers cruised past the Demon Deacons and maintained their dominance in the head-to-head series.

Sammy Watkins collected 177 of his school-record 202 receiving yards in a 343-yard first-half effort for Clemson (7-1, 4-1 ACC), which has won four straight against Wake Forest (4-4, 2-4) and 60 of 78 meetings between the schools.

Tanner Price led the Demon Deacons on a small rally with TD passes late in the second quarter and midway through the third, but the Tigers ended any suspense with 1-yard TD run from D.J. Howard to cap a 13-play scoring drive with 8:44 remaining to account for the final margin.

Price finished with 232 yards and Josh Harris added a game-high 76 yards on the ground for Wake Forest, which has been outscored 157-70 in conference play.
