The Miami Hurricanes will be looking to avoid a letdown when they visit the Wake Forest Demon Deacons on Saturday. Kickoff is set for 3:30 PM EST in Winston-Salem.

Miami will be counting on sophomore running back Charlie Jones to continue filling the void left by injured starter Tyrone Moss, who is out for the season after tearing his ACL early on in last week's victory over the Virginia Tech Hokies. Quarterback Kyle Wright will look to continue his steady play after posting solid numbers last week despite being knocked out of the game in the second quarter after taking a huge hit. The Hurricanes defense will be hungry to match their performance in last Saturday night's contest, but that will be hard to do. The Hurricanes essentially shut down quarterback Marcus Vick and the Hokies, forcing six turnovers in the process.

The Demon Deacons will rely on a top-flight running attack against the Hurricanes stout defense. Wake Forest is averaging 204.0 yards per game on the ground but will go up against a Miami stop unit that is allowing just 97.4. Senior Chris Barclay anchors a running back corps. He has already topped the 1,000 yard plateau and will try to get a rhythm early against the Hurricanes. Wake Forest will need some early momentum if they want to have a shot at beating the surging Miami Hurricanes.
