If the Deacs are going to tug off the miracle run, it’ll have to start out with a win over the Hokies at this time. This would be the third time Wake and VT meet this season, with the two groups splitting their video games within the common season. In Wake’s win over VT in January, the Deacs compelled 19 Hokie turnovers, leading to 19 factors off turnovers. In VT’s blowout win over Wake in February, the Deacs compelled simply 5 turnovers and completed with simply 8 factors off turnovers. Based on that, Wake ought to have an opportunity if they will muck the sport up with aggressive protection and velocity VT up, hopefully leading to a ton of turnovers.

Go Deacs!
