Know Thy Enemy: LSU

With an ACC schedule and a ruthless non-conference schedule, few teams endure a more challenging schedule that your Demon Deacons. But tonight, Wake Forest gets the allure of playing (indubitably) the nation's most gifted player. Unlike most years, this is not against Duke or UNC or Syracuse. Ben Simmons plays in Baton Rouge.

The 6-10 point-forward crossed the Pacific from Down Under with higher expectations than Outback Steakhouse (sorry guys). In his one year in high school, he led Montverde (FL) to a national championship (teammates with Doral Moore) and has amazed fans with his vision, physicality and grace.
