Wednesday night was a night of figuring out how to win on the road. For Wake Forest, it meant getting just the second win on the road in conference play since Jeff Bzdelik took over in Winston-Salem. After a 83-77 victory over Virginia Tech, Bzdelik is now 2-27 in conference road games. For Duke, it was about bringing the same defensive intensity and focus on the road that they play with at home. The Blue Devils certainly did that at Miami, winning 67-46. Duke posted a defensive efficiency of 82 in the win, their second best defensive performance of the season.
No games in the ACC tonight, but a big schedule nationally. Check out the links, highlights, and more below.
