Luck Leads Stanford Past Wake Forest 68-24

STANFORD (AP) - Andrew Luck threw four touchdown passes, ran 52 yards for another score and led No. 19 Stanford to the end zone on all eight drives that he played in a a 68-24 victory over Wake Forest on Saturday night.

Chris Owusu caught two TD passes in his first game of the season and Tyler Gaffney ran for two scores to help the Cardinal (3-0) score their most points in 42 years. Stanford has won its first three games for the first time since 2001.

The Demon Deacons (2-1) scored 107 points in winning their first two games but didn't have nearly enough offense to keep up with Luck and Stanford. Wake Forest gave up its most points since losing 72-13 to Florida State in 1995.

Luck completed his first eight passes of the game and effortlessly moved the Cardinal down the field against a Wake Forest defense that allowed 48 points in a win over Duke last week.
