EagleBank Bowl Scores: Wake Forest Demon Deacons Win Third Straight Bowl Game with Victory Over Navy Midshipmen

Riley Skinner was a perfect 11/11 passing for 166 yards and a touchdown, Kevin Harris collected 136 yards rushing and the Wake Forest Demon Deacons (8-5) offense rolled up 406 yards of total offense to beat the Navy Midshipmen (8-5) 29-19 in the inaugural EagleBank Bowl at RFK Stadium.

Early on it looked like Navy would score their second win over Wake Forest this year as they built a 13-0 lead with a pair of field goals from Matt Harmon and a fumble recovered and returned 50-yards by Rashawn King for a touchdown.

Wake managed to stop the bleeding with 36 seconds left in the first half as Josh Adams scored on a 4-yard run to cut their deficit to 13-7 at the break.

The second half the Demon Deacons looked like a different team as they grabbed their first lead midway through the third frame as Adams added his second TD on a 5-yard run for a 14-13 advantage.

Navy managed to reclaim the lead in the fourth when Kaipo-Noa Kaheaku-Enhada scored on a 2-yard keeper but their two-point attempt failed to leave the score at 19-14. Wake Forest answered the Midshipmen with a scoring drive of their own as Skinner hit Ben Wooster on an 8-yard touchdown pass and their two-point conversion gave them a 22-19 lead with 7:52 left in the game.

The defense of the Demon Deacons came up big in the second half and they continued to hold Navy and then stopped the Midshipmen on a fourth down with just over a minute left on the clock. Wake then put the game away when Rich Belton scored on a 35-yard run with 54 seconds remaining.
