BOSTON (AP) - Kevin Challenger made a foot-dragging catch for a 26-yard touchdown at the end zone sideline with 1:18 left Saturday as No. 14 Boston College rallied from early and late deficits to beat Wake Forest 35-30.
The Eagles (6-1, 3-1 Atlantic Coast Conference) fell behind 17-0 on a wet and windy day when it had five turnovers, a blocked punt and no fewer than 10 dropped passes. BC trailed 30-21 with 3:24 left when Matt Ryan replaced Quinton Porter for the final two drives.
Ryan hit Tony Gonzalez for a 38-yard touchdown pass to pull BC within two with 2:30 left, but an excessive celebration penalty forced the Eagles to kick off from their own 20. After stopping Wake Forest, BC had 1:56 left to win it.
