Pitt vs. Wake Forest: Open Gamethread

After a rough 0-3 stretch, Pitt desperately needs to rebound and right the ship, so to speak. They'll have a very good chance to do that tonight against Wake Forest.

Wake is near the bottom of the conference at 10-15 with only one conference win to date. Ironically, that came against North Carolina State, a team that destroyed Pitt. The Demon Deacons aren't a very good team but they can't be looked over here. They own major-conference wins over Indiana, Arkansas, UCLA, LSU, and Rutgers (those last two on the road) as well as some close losses to Virginia (by one), Virginia Tech (by two), and Georgia Tech (by five).

Pitt will be licking its wounds after an 0-3 crapfest against ranked Virginia, Miami, and North Carolina teams. They desperately need a win here and assuming they come out swinging, should get it.

Game time at 7:00 p.m. and you can catch it on ESPNU.
