The Wake Forest Demon Deacons (15-5) will hit the road to face the Louisville Cardinals (15-5) in an ACC showdown on Tuesday night, with tip-off set for 7:00 PM ET.
Wake Forest has shown solid consistency in the win column this season, despite some ups and downs in November and December. Notably, the Demon Deacons have yet to drop consecutive games this year, though they’ll face a tough challenge in Louisville to keep that streak alive.
The team kicked off the season with a 9-4 mark, falling to Xavier, Florida, Texas A&M, and Clemson, but securing wins against Coppin State, North Carolina A&T, Michigan, USC Upstate, Western Carolina, Detroit, Minnesota, Boston College, and James Madison. After a recent loss to Duke over the weekend, Wake Forest now sits at 15-5 on the season.
Louisville has also enjoyed a steady campaign, aside from a rocky 1-4 stretch back in December. Outside of that rough patch, the Cardinals have been strong, suffering just one other defeat, which came against Tennessee early in the season.
They started 5-1 with victories over Morehead State, Bellarmine, Winthrop, Indiana, and West Virginia. However, their December skid included losses to Oklahoma, Duke, Ole Miss, and Kentucky, with a lone win over UTEP in that span.
Since then, the Cardinals have rebounded in a big way, notching consecutive wins over Florida State, Eastern Kentucky, North Carolina, Virginia, Clemson, Pitt, Syracuse, Virginia again, and SMU, bringing their record to 15-5 for the 2024-25 season.
