MIAMI GARDENS, Fla. Per Mertesacker Germany Jersey . -- Duke Johnson ran for two fourth-quarter touchdowns, the second a 1-yard plunge with 53 seconds left, as No. 7 Miami rallied twice to beat Wake Forest 24-21 on Saturday and remain unbeaten. Johnson finished with 168 yards on 30 carries for the Hurricanes (7-0, 3-0 Atlantic Coast Conference), Tanner Prices 44-yard touchdown pass to Dominique Gibson with 4:02 remaining put Wake Forest on top, but the Hurricanes went 73 yards on their next 10 plays, with Johnson scoring to keep Miami unbeaten heading into next weeks showdown at No. 3 Florida State. Wake Forest (4-4, 2-3 fell to 1-53 all-time against Top 10 teams -- the lone win coming exactly 67 years ago Saturday. The Demon Deacons trailed for less than 3 minutes against the Hurricanes, and still dropped their fifth straight in the series. Antonio Crawfords interception sealed the win with 37 seconds left for Miami, which was playing its first game since the NCAA investigation into the Nevin Shapiro scandal ended earlier in the week -- culminating a 2 1/2-year saga for the Hurricanes. After Johnsons first score of the game put Miami up 17-14 late in the fourth quarter, Wake Forest found an answer. Price connected with Jared Crump for an 11-yard gain on 4th-and-5 from the Wake Forest 45 with 4:30 remaining. On the next snap, he found Gibson on the right sideline, linebacker Tyrone Cornelius wound up missing on the tackle, and Gibson took off on a 44-yard play that put the Demon Deacons up 21-17 with 4:02 left. But for the second straight game, Miami found a way to get a win in the final moments, and matched their best start since 2003. Price threw for 302 yards and Michael Campanaro had 10 catches for 88 yards for the Demon Deacons. Stephen Morris threw for 191 yards for Miami, including a touchdown pass to Herb Waters. Wake Forest set the tone from the outset, going 16 plays and getting a touchdown on the games first drive. None of the plays gained more than 14 yards, and the 79-yard march -- capped by Josh Harris 12-yard run -- chewed nearly 9 minutes off the clock. In terms of plays (by two) and time (by more than 2 minutes), it was Wake Forests longest scoring drive of the season. Miami was simply on its heels. The Hurricanes went three-and-out on their ensuing drive, and didnt get the ball again until the second quarter. At one point early in the second quarter, Wake Forest was outgaining Miami 124 yards to 8 and enjoying nearly a 10-to-1 edge in time of possession. And after Miami got on the board with a field goal, the Demon Deacons rode the strength of a big play to take a two-score edge. Price found Tyree Harris with a 56-yard third-down pass midway through the second quarter, getting Wake Forest into the Miami red zone. Four plays later -- on 4th-and-1 -- Price connected with Campanaro from 9 yards out to put the Demon Deacons up 14-3, the biggest deficit the Hurricanes had faced since the Florida State game on Oct. 20, 2012. Late in the half, Miami seemed to finally get something going. Facing third-and-short with about 1:30 left, Morris faked a handoff and fired a fastball down the right hash marks that seemed to be sailing high -- before tight end Clive Walford snared it with his right hand and somehow held on through the tackle. One play later, Morris connected with Waters for a 35-yard scoring strike, getting the Hurricanes within 14-10 at halftime. Midway through the third, Miami was inside the Wake Forest 10, but Dallas Crawford was stopped by safety Anthony Wooding, who shook off a block and wrapped him up just shy of what would have been a first down. And when Miami elected not to go for it on another fourth-down opportunity early in the fourth, there was more than a little bit of booing at Sun Life Stadium. Ultimately, the field-position game proved effective. Miami downed a punt at the Wake Forest 3, forced a three-and-out, and Johnson put the Hurricanes ahead for the first time 4 minutes later.Matthias Ginter Jersey .Ahead of the FIFA executive committee reviewing the case next week, Champagne suggested Wednesday that the hosting status of Russia and Qatar were still open to question. Manuel Neuer Germany Jersey .C. -- The buzz is back in Charlotte.COLUMBUS, Ohio - Four Canadian teams are in playoff positions at the NHLs all-star break. The Montreal Canadiens are the lone Eastern Conference team, while the Winnipeg Jets, Vancouver Canucks and Calgary Flames are in the top eight in the West.Heres what those teams have to do to keep the spots in the second half of the season and what the others in contention, the Ottawa Senators and Toronto Maple Leafs, need to do to make it. The Edmonton Oilers are 20 points out of a playoff spot and are largely considered out of post-season contention.Playoff chances are from Sports Club Stats.MONTREAL CANADIENSRecord: 29-13-3, 61 pointsPlace in standings: Third in Atlantic DivisionChances of making playoffs: 98.8 per centWhat they have to do: Hope Carey Price stays healthy. The all-star goaltender is Montreals best player, and as long as hes on the ice and contributing, the Canadiens will be fine.WINNIPEG JETSRecord: 26-14-8, 60 pointsPlace in standings: First Western Conference wild cardChances of making playoffs: 92.4 per centWhat they have to do: Dont let up and the first playoff game in Winnipeg for this version of the Jets awaits. This team turned a corner, according to defenceman Dustin Byfuglien, and a 7-2-1 stretch going into the break gave it a nice cushion.VANCOUVER CANUCKSRecord: 26-16-3, 55 pointsPlace in standings: Third in Pacific DivisionChances of making playoffs: 92.4 per centWhat they need to do: Play better at home, according to all-star winger Radim Vrbata, talking about the Canucks 11-8-1 record at Rogers Arena. Witth 23 home games left the rest of the way, thatll determine if Ryan Miller and Vancouver can hold on despite some inconsistency. Thomas Muller Germany Jersey. CALGARY FLAMESRecord: 25-19-3, 53 pointsPlace in standings: Second Western Conference wild cardChances of making playoffs: 72.2 per centWhat they need to do: Beat the other teams in the hunt and you try to avoid the losing streak, captain Mark Giordano said. Up one point on the defending Stanley Cup-champion Los Angeles Kings and with others not far away, itll be a test of Bob Hartleys young group.OTTAWA SENATORSRecord: 19-18-9, 47 pointsPlace in standings: 10 points out of second Eastern Conference wild cardChances of making playoffs: 16.7 per centWhat they need to do: Hope one of the current playoff teams falls off its current pace because erasing a 10-point deficit this late is almost impossible. Winger Bobby Ryan said the Senators need to gain a point or two the rest of this month and close the gap in February and March just to put themselves in striking distance in April.TORONTO MAPLE LEAFSRecord: 22-23-3, 47 pointsPlace in standings: 10 points out of second Eastern Conference wild cardChances of making playoffs: 4.5 per centWhat they need to do: Get on a roll fast and figure out how to play interim coach Peter Horacheks system. Losers of six in a row, the Maple Leafs are in danger of not only a lost season but huge changes on the horizon this off-season. A run to the playoffs now looks improbable but it might affect the organizations plans.---Follow @SWhyno on Twitter wholesale jerseys cheap jerseys cheap jerseys cheap nfl jerseys cheap nfl jerseys ' ' '
