Will Wake Forest make March crazy?
Wake Forest has been one of the ACC’s standout teams in a long stretch of the game this year, but the Demon Deacons ended the season in a 3-4 drought, which ended in a heartbreaking loss to Boston College in ACC tournament.
Suddenly, their hopes of a March Madness landing were in grave danger as they entered Selection Sunday.
One team awaiting their fate today is Wake Forest, which has ACC Player of the Year Alondes Williams and ACC Coach of the Year Steve Forbes.

WynnBET Haven’t set the odds for the teams participating in the NCAA Tournament, so I decided to place my own bet.
All Wake Forest might have to do, is have a good showing in the NCAA Tournament and it will have it all but its bid. Instead, a nightmare situation befell them as they lost to Boston College, who have only aggregated 13-19 this season and 6-14 in the conference game.
Wake Forest are without a win against ranked teams this season, but for what it’s deserved, they do have a resume win over the eventual ACC tournament champion in Virginia Tech. Was that enough to convince the commission to give them a landing? I do not think so.
ESPN’s Joe Lunardi there’s Wake Forest among the first four, along with SMU, Xavier and Oklahoma. Most predicted brackets feature Wake Forest in the first four seasons, but not all hope is lost. The committee may want to award the ACC player of the year and coach of the year in the league, and a case could be made for the Demon Deacons.
