Wake Forest beats BC 3-0 thanks to hilariously ugly finish image

This was the greatest football game of all time. Don't let anyone tell you differently.

Wake Forest beat Boston College 3-0 on Saturday thanks to a 25-yard field goal from Mike Weaver in the third quarter. But the way it ended was truly something special and should be talked about for decades.

Wake punted from its own 5 with just under four minutes to play. Boston College started at about midfield, then drove all the way to the 8 before fumbling. So Wake had the game wrapped up with two minutes left, right? 

Nope. The Demon Deacons fumbled, and BC got it back at the 11. Two plays later, on first-and-goal, Tyler Rouse ran up the middle and after a scrum, BC couldn't get lined up fast enough. Time expired.

The rundown:

—Six turnovers

—412 total yards

—18 punts

—17 total completions

—Wake first downs: 5

—Three points
