Steve Forbes came prepared for the final ACC coaches teleconference of the season on Monday, glancing down at a long list of upcoming opponent Virginia’s statistical data.

Forbes brings his Wake Forest team (15-14, 6-10) to No. 13 Virginia (25-4, 13-3) for tonight’s 7 o’clock tipoff (ACC Network), hoping to break the Cavaliers’ grip on the series. UVA, a 14.5-point favorite by Odds Shark (as of Monday night), has won 13 of the last 15 meetings against the Demon Deacons.
