Not that Elon had a chance to beat Wake Forest today, but the Phoenix weren’t expecting the zebras to pitch in on behalf of the Demon Deacons.  In the second quarter of Wake’s 35-7 victory, WR Chris Givens was running a deep out with CB Karlos Sullivan keeping stride-for-stride with Givens. Then all of sudden, ooops, back judge Tommy Pace inadvertently tripped Sullivan. As Sullivan dropped, Givens stood wide-open and Riley Skinner hit Givens for a 54 yard touchdown pass.

During Wake’s celebration, Sullivan bounced back up and eyed the ref with a “what the hell?!?!?” facial expression. Much to Sullivan’s dismay, there was nothing the zebra could do as officials are considered part of the field.

Skinner had a strong performance on Saturday going 14 /20 for 289 yard, 3 TDs, and 1 Int. Next up for Wake is BC.
