Wednesday night ACC action will see the Wake Forest Demon Deacons take on the Louisville Cardinals. Louisville is the cream of the crop in the ACC, while Wake is near the bottom.
Wake Forest Demon Deacons
The Demon Deacons got a win over Clemson last time out, beating them 56-44. Despite that win, Wake is just 3-8 in the conference and have overall just not been competitive.
Looking at the offense, Wake does not have much that impresses me. They average 71.6 points per game, but in away games, they average 66.4. In ACC road games, they average 69.2 points per game.
Doing most of the work on offense is Brandon Childress. He is the leading scorer for this team and is averaging 15.4 points per game. Olivier Starr and Chaundee Brown both average 12.8 points per game. So just these three guys alone make up 70.6% of their scoring.
This could be the biggest issue for Wake Forest. If these guys are not hot, this team is going to struggle to score all night and it will likely lead to a blowout loss.

Defensively, Wake is also not great, allowing 72.1 points per game. This average increases to 76.6 points in road games. Specifically in ACC road games, the Demon Deacons allow 78.6 points, so do not expect them to limit Louisville all that much.
Louisville Cardinals
The Cardinals are on fire right now, riding an eight-game win streak. They have not lost since their first game of the New Year, and look like a team that is ready to make a deep tournament run. Louisville sits at the top of the ACC with a record of 10-1 after beating NC State on the road 77-57 over the weekend.
Offensively, the Cardinals are averaging 75.4 points per game. This ranks as the 76th best scoring offense in the country, but because there are so many teams, that ranking is not bad. Where they excel is shooting the ball. As a team, Louisville averages 46.4% from the field and 39.7% from the three-point line. They are also an exceptional rebounding team, averaging 39.8 total rebounds, which ranks 29th in the country.
To no surprise, Jordan Nwora is the leading scorer for this team. He is averaging 19.3 points per game and 7.5 rebounds per game. The main issue with this is, the Cardinals do not really have a second player who can take over. Steven Enoch is the second best scorer for Louisville, but he is only averaging 10.3 points per game. A couple guys are close to scoring double-digits on average, but really this team plays how Nwora plays.
Defensively is where the Cardinals have dominated this season. They allow an average of 62.4 points per game. This is the 29th ranked scoring defense in the country. Furthermore, they allow their opponents to shoot 37% from the field (5th) and 29% from deep range (18th).
Their defense is even better at home, where they allow 58.8 points per game on average.
CBB Betting Trends:
- Under is 7-2 in LOU last 9 Wed. games.
- Under is 5-0 in LOU last 5 February games.
Free Wake Forest Demon Deacons vs. Louisville Cardinals NCAAB Prediction:
I look for the Cardinals to dominate Wake Forest all night long and they pick up an easy win. The Louisville defense will be the difference here and that will help the under cash in this game.
