James Madison Dukes Analysis

Wake Forest comes into this SEC/ACC Challenge matchup at 3-3, having lost to Georgia, LSU, and Utah.

On offense, they are ranked 86th in points per game, 66th in field goal percentage, and 90th in 3-point field goal percentage.

Gators Use Rebounding Advantage to Propel Potential Road Win Over Wake Forest

The Gators have had better results against quality opponents this season, holding a 2-2 record for the Power Five Conferences. Oppositely, Wake Forest’s record against quality opponents, including two SEC teams, stands at 0-2. The Gator’s should be able to use their advantage on the glass, allowing them to dictate the pace of play. This should result in them gaining more easy baskets, leading them to a potential road win this Wednesday. Both teams have performed well offensively this year, however the Gator’s rebounding advantage should give them the edge in this game.
