DURHAM, N.C. (AP) -- Riley Skinner passed for a career-high 372 yards and a school-record five touchdowns to help Wake Forest defeat Duke 45-34 on Saturday. Skinner completed 28 of 38 passes and did not throw an interception for the Demon Deacons (5-7, 3-5 Atlantic Coast Conference), who ended their season by snapping a five-game losing streak. Devon Brown caught a pair of touchdown passes to help Wake Forest get its 10th consecutive win over Duke. Marshall Williams added eight catches for 119 yards and a touchdown for the Demon Deacons. Thaddeus Lewis passed for 387 yards, three touchdowns and an interception for the Blue Devils (5-7, 3-5), who ended the season on a four-game skid after starting the season 5-3. Lewis, who added a 1-yard touchdown run in the fourth quarter, became the 60th player in Football Bowl Subdivision history to pass for 10,000 career yards. Donovan Varner, who caught two touchdown passes for Duke, set career highs with 11 catches for 174 yards. The Demon Deacons, who led 21-17 at halftime, pulled away in the third quarter. Skinner sandwiched a pair of touchdown passes around a 33-yard field goal by Duke's Will Snyderwine to give Wake Forest a 35-20 lead entering the fourth quarter. Alex Frye returned an interception 37 yards for a touchdown with 3:26 remaining in the game to seal the victory for the Demon Deacons. The game featured the first matchup of 9,000-yard passers in ACC history in Skinner and Lewis, two of three players in league history to throw for at least 2,000 yards in all four seasons. Skinner and Lewis wasted no time adding to their gaudy career statistics in the final college game for each. Before the game was 8 minutes old, each quarterback had thrown a pair of long touchdown passes. Lewis hooked up with Varner and Austin Kelly on touchdowns of 56 and 62 yards, and Skinner connected with Brown and Chris Givens on scoring strikes of 28 and 54 yards. While Lewis passed former Florida State quarterback Chris Weinke for second place on the ACC list for career passing yards, Skinner finished second all time in another category. Skinner's final completion percentage of .6693 left him just behind the ACC record of .6697 set by Matt Schaub of Virginia.
