Wake Forest took their matchup against the Hampton Pirates this past Saturday by a conclusive 97-70 score. Guard Cameron Hildreth and guard Damari Monsanto were among the main playmakers for the Demon Deacons as the former posted a triple-double on 14 points, 11 rebounds, and ten assists and the latter shot 6-for-9 from downtown and finished with 20 points. That's Hildreth's first triple-double of the season.
Meanwhile, the USC Trojans typically have all the answers at home, but this past Friday Wisconsin proved too difficult a challenge. Wisconsin snuck past USC with a 64-59 victory. Wisconsin's guard Chucky Hepburn filled up the stat sheet, picking up 17 points.
The Demon Deacons are expected to lose this next one by 5.5. They are currently two-for-two against the spread in their most recent games, however, a trend bettors might want to take into account.
The wins brought Wake Forest up to 6-1 and the Badgers to 5-1. Wake Forest is 4-1 after wins this year, Wisconsin 3-1.
