If the Deacs are going to pull off the miracle run, it is going to have to start with a win over the Hokies today. This will be the 3rd time Wake and VT meet this season, with the 2 teams splitting their games in the regular season. In Wake’s win over VT in January, the Deacs forced 19 Hokie turnovers, resulting in 19 points off turnovers. In VT’s blowout win over Wake in February, the Deacs forced just 5 turnovers and finished with just 8 points off turnovers. Based on that, Wake should have a chance if the can muck the game up with aggressive defense and speed VT up, hopefully resulting in a ton of turnovers.
Go Deacs!
