Wake Forest University quarterback Riley Skinner has received clearance from team physicians to play when the Deacons visit Georgia Tech Saturday at 3:30 p.m. The game will be televised on ABC regionally and ESPN2 nationally.

Skinner suffered a concussion late in last Saturday’s game vs. Miami.

Skinner did not practice Monday, saw minimal practice time Tuesday, and gradually returned to the regular practice routine later in the week.

The fifth-year senior quarterback is expected to start his 33rd consecutive game for the Deacons on Saturday.  Skinner is second in the ACC this year with 18 touchdown passes to go with 10 interceptions.  He has passed for almost 2,300 yards on the season.

Wake Forest is currently 4-5 overall and 2-3 in the ACC after suffering three straight losses to Clemson, Navy and Miami.  The Deacons currently sit in 4th place in the Atlantic division.
