The Wake Forest Demon Deacons will host the North Carolina State Wolfpack in what will be the 242nd meeting between the two schools. Both teams enter the contest with their backs against the proverbial wall, as both teams are currently 0-2 in ACC play. It's critical that the Deacs don't start 0-3 in ACC play because over the past 10 years, 52 teams from the ACC have made the NCAA Tournament, and just 2 have started 0-3.
This promises to be an up-and-down game and will probably come down to the wire. Wake is going to have to play disciplined basketball, and consistently look to get Devin Thomas touches.
As always, go Deacs!
