One never can tell how a young team is going to respond to fatigue but with the Blue Devils on their 3rd game in 6 days Coach Jon Scheyer would find out. Wake Forest also entered Cameron on short rest having playing their 3rd game in 7 days. Suffice it to say, neither team brought their best stuff. The Blue Devils did have just enough to get by the Demon Deacons 77-69 but it was not pretty.
The Blue Devils could not get out of their own way turning the ball over 13 times leading to 15 points for Wake.
