In a fierce ACC battle on Saturday afternoon, No. 8 Duke suffered an upset loss at the hands of unranked Wake Forest.
The game was an intense back-and-forth affair that underwent several lead changes before the Blue Devils fell by the final score of 83-79. Duke suffered its sixth loss of the season, while Wake Forest moved to 18-9. Of the team's six defeats, four have occurred against unranked opponents.
Although head coach Jon Scheyer's team delivered an efficient performance on offense, the Demon Deacons were on fire from behind the arc. Wake Forest shot 53 percent on three-pointers as a team, with junior guard Hunter Sallis connecting on five of his six attempts from three.
