#2 Virginia Cavaliers vs. Wake Forest Demon Deacons Preview
On the season Virginia is 14-10 ATS and they have an O/U record of 8-12-1 and Wake Forest is 12-9-1 ATS and they have an O/U record of 15-5.
This season Wake Forest is 10-6 at home and Virginia is 9-0 on the road.
In their last games Virginia beat Florida State 51-41 and Wake Forest lost to Notre Dame 88-75.
These teams met on Valentines Day at Virginia and the Cavaliers barely escaped the HUGE upset in the 1-point win. They are now 8-point road betting favorites face a Wake Forest team that has lost 3 of their last 4 games including their last 2.
Wake Forest is 0-5 this season facing top 25 teams.
While the Cavaliers are the favorite tonight they are 0-10 in their last 10 road games facing Wake Forest.
The Cavaliers have reeled off 6 straight wins and they are a perfect 9-0 on the road this season.
The Demon Deacons have won 3 straight home games.
Virginia is missing one of their leading scorers in Justin Anderson (13.4 ppg) and their offense has been struggling. They are not a high scoring team only ranking 212th in points per game, but they have the best defense in the nation only giving up an average of 50.5 ppg.
Wake Forest shot 48% in the first half in their 1-point loss to Virginia on the 14th of this month, but they struggled down the stretch. Codi Miller-McIntyre and Devin Thomas are the top 2 scorers and rebounders for the Demon Deacons and they must play well to pull off the upset tonight. Thomas had major foul trouble in the UVA match up being held to 3 points, but in the loss to Notre Dame he went for 26 points with 11 boards.
6’10” freshman Konstantinos Mitoglou went for 18 in the game against the Cavs and he also must play well on both sides of the floor.

4* Cappers NCAAB Free Pick
Wake Forest is a much better team at home this season and while I do not think they will win facing Virginia’s great defense they will cover the 8-point spread.
