The Deacs are set to take on the Niners for the 4th consecutive year, and this could shape up be the best game between the two in recent history. Wake has dominated this series since 2016, winning all 3 games by an average margin of 21 points, but this is a road game and the Niners may be a bit better than they were the last few season. The Niners are coming off an impressive win over Davidson and it looks like 2nd year head coach Ron Sanchez, who spent 12 years on Tony Bennett’s staff, may have Charlotte back on track.
