Wake Forest will need some high energy entering this contest. The Demon Deacons have lost three straight road games against the Wolfpack since a 55-53 win on March 6, 2005.

The good news for Wake backers is Jeff Teague, second in the ACC with 20.9 points per game, had 27 versus the Eagles on Sunday and appears to be out of a slump.

The Wolfpack have gotten two straight strong performances from senior big man Ben McCauley. He’s averaging 21.0 points and 13.5 rebounds in his last two games.

McCauley was held to four points and two rebounds in N.C. State’s last matchup with Wake Forest, which they won 78-67 on March 8. The Wolfpack lead the series 130-97. Get your college basketball odds now.
