The Deacs are back on the parquet tonight to face off against the Charleston Southern Buccaneers. This one should be a blowout basically from the jump, as the Bucs are rated by KenPom as the 337th best team in the nation—out of 358 teams. Charleston Southern’s only win this season is against Johnson and Wales, a division III school in Charlotte with an enrollment of under 2,000. This is one of those games where either Wake blows them out, and we all write it off due to the opponent, or Wake struggles, and we all overreact to the fact that they can barely beat a team scheduling DIII opponents. In any event, Go Deacs!
