NC State (18-8, 9-4 ACC standings) has improved this season under new basketball coach Will Wade. However, the Wolfpack are on a two-game losing streak after a 118-77 beatdown at the hands of Louisville and a one-point loss to Miami. However, this is a rivalry game that will be played in front of nearly 20,000 Wolfpack fans, and anything can happen. (USA Today)
