The No. 14 Cavaliers eye an eighth straight win as they host the Demon Deacons. Virginia ended a five-game series slide with a win last year, its first over Wake Forest since 2007. Demond Claiborne (WAKE) topped 100 yards from scrimmage with two TDs.
SEC adversaries in the Bulldogs and Razorbacks long for a return to the win column. Mississippi State has dropped four straight after nearly upsetting Texas in overtime. Arkansas is mired in a six-game slide with four by fewer than six points.
