The Deacs fell just short in their last game, and they now return home to take on Virginia and that tough pack line defense. Like Clemson, Manning has yet to beat the Cavs in his 6 years at Wake Forest. That could change today, as UVA is in the middle of a quasi rebuilding year after losing basically all of their offense from the National Championship team. With the Hoos shooting just 40% from the floor if the season, if the Deacs can avoid costly live ball turnovers and forces the Cavs to make actual shots, they should have a solid shot at pulling out the W.
