Duke, Wake Forest meet in regular season finale

DURHAM, N.C. (AP) — Duke won't win the Coastal Division. Wake Forest won't play in a bowl game.

Yet neither team will lack motivation when they meet Saturday in their regular season finale — even if the goals are somewhat more abstract.

The Blue Devils (8-3, 4-3 Atlantic Coast Conference) want to get back to the level of play that put them in first place atop the Coastal for much of the season.

The Demon Deacons (3-8, 1-6) want to show they've improved during the first year of coach Dave Clawson's rebuilding job.

Defensive end Zach Allen says his teammates want to "show they will never give up, no matter the record."
