WINSTON-SALEM, N.C. -- Wake Forests guards did what theyre supposed to do -- make shots, take care of the ball and pass it to teammates who can score. The result: Another lopsided win to open the season.Keyshawn Woods scored 22 points with five of Wake Forests 13 3-pointers in a 94-74 win over Bucknell on Sunday.John Collins added 19 points and Mitchell Wilbekin had 13 to help the Demon Deacons (2-0) sweep a short, season-opening homestand, with this win coming less than 48 hours after a 21-point rout of Radford.Dinos Mitoglou finished with 11 points and Austin Arians had 10 for Wake Forest, which shot 50 percent both from the field and behind the arc, while matching a high for 3-pointers under third-year coach Danny Manning. The Demon Deacons also made 13 in a loss at Virginia Tech last January .Youre not going to shoot 50 percent from the 3-point line on a regular basis, Manning said. Were going to have to make shots throughout the course of the year to have success.Another stat may have thrilled him even more: Wake Forests four guards -- Bryant Crawford, Brandon Childress, Woods and Wilbekin -- combined for 16 assists and no turnovers. Eight of those assists belonged to Crawford.Ill take that every game, Manning said.Zach Thomas scored 16 points and Kimbal Mackenzie finished with 15 for the Bison (1-1), who shot 45 percent and clawed back into the game by turning 15 offensive rebounds into 22 second-chance points.Manning has said this is the best outside shooting team hes had in Winston-Salem, and it was hard to argue against that while the Demon Deacons made seven of their first nine 3-pointers to put Bucknell in an early hole.After the Bison pulled within single digits for the final time early in the second half, Wake Forest hit three more 3s in the span of four possessions -- including a four-point play by Arians -- to build a comfortable lead it wouldnt give back.Every time we made a mistake, and sometimes when we didnt, they made it, Bucknell coach Nathan Davis said.BIG PICTUREBucknell: Though they still havent beaten a team in the Atlantic Coast Conference at the time since 1961, the Bison showed signs that they will be a factor in the Patriot League race with a knack for getting to loose balls and turning them into buckets. But fouls were a problem for the Bison, who had two players pick up their fourth fouls in the first half. Davis said his team showed a lot of character in clawing back from 16 points down and had a chance to make it interesting.Wake Forest: The Demon Deacons took care of business this weekend with those two easy wins to get them prepared for even bigger challenges at the Charleston Classic -- where well surely learn more about what this teams ceiling ultimately is. Defending national champion Villanova likely awaits in a later round.STAT SHEETWake Forest was 23 of 29 from the free-throw line while Bucknell was just 5 of 9.TIP-INSBucknell fell to 11-52 against current ACC members with nine of those wins coming against Pittsburgh -- all before the Panthers joined their new league. ... This was just the seventh time under Manning that Wake Forest reached double figures in 3-pointers.UP NEXTBucknell: The Bison return home to face Robert Morris on Wednesday night before beginning play in the Las Vegas Invitational.Wake Forest: The Demon Deacons head to Charleston, South Carolina, for three games in the Charleston Classic, starting with a matchup with UTEP on Thursday.---Follow Joedy McCreary at http://twitter.com/joedyap---More AP college basketball: http://collegebasketball.ap.org Wholesale Penguins Jerseys .J. -- Marty Brodeur beat the Pittsburgh Penguins yet again.

WINSTON-SALEM, N.C. -- Clemsons offense clicked with enough precision to build a huge lead. The defense got back on track after a rather leaky loss.The No. 4 Tigers sure seem like theyre back to playing like the Atlantic Coast Conferences top national title contender.Just in time for the playoff push to really get serious.Clemson (10-1, 7-1) wrapped up its conference schedule by claiming the Atlantic Division title and the spot in the ACC title game that comes with it, beating Wake Forest 35-13 after scoring touchdowns the first four times it touched the ball.A very, very good, complete football game, coach Dabo Swinney said.They celebrated with a trophy in the locker room after the game -- hoping it was the first in a series of such celebrations over the coming weeks that they can repeat.They face South Carolina in what they call their state championship next week, then will play either Virginia Tech or North Carolina on Dec. 3 in the ACC title game. Clemson won both of those games last year on its way to the College Football Playoff.Its hard to be the champs, quarterback Deshaun Watson said. Its hard to constantly be winning, go back to back. Were going to celebrate it (Saturday night and Sunday) and then move on from it and get ready for the state championship.The victory over Wake Forest started out with precisely the kind of performance expected of a team coming off an appearance in the national championship game and featuring a Heisman Trophy finalist. It came two nights after division rival Louisville and Heisman contender Lamar Jackson effectively played themselves out of the pplayoff picture with that blowout loss at Houston.ddddddddddddClemson has spent all year in the top five, but it hasnt always been a smooth ride , with five wins decided by a touchdown or less.The Tigers won a thriller at home against Louisville , then sidestepped an upset bid by North Carolina State -- which shanked a chip shot field goal on the final play of regulation -- and won in overtime, before claiming a dramatic victory over Florida State .It caught up with the Tigers last week when they allowed 464 total yards -- and a season-worst 308 through the air -- to Pittsburgh, which won on a field goal in the final seconds.Neither the voters nor the selection committee punished them too harshly, though, keeping them in the top five of the polls and in the top four in the playoff rankings. But for a week there was a lingering dilemma about whether Louisville deserved to jump them.Nobodys having that conversation anymore, not after Louisvilles loss. And not after Clemson got back to basics during the week and then took out any lingering frustrations on the Demon Deacons in the games first 15-plus minutes. The defense, gashed by Pitt the previous week, held Wake Forest to 197 total yards.Thats what we wanted to do was start fast and make sure we caught Wake Forest just a little bit, push them back and put the pressure on them, Watson said. And we just handled our business.---More AP college football: www.collegefootball.ap.org and https://twitter.com/AP-Top25 ' ' '
