DEACS VISIT RUTGERS FOR BIG TEN/ACC CHALLENGE
• Wake Forest and Rutgers meet for the first time tonight in the first game of the 2015 Big Ten/ACC Challenge
• The Deacs look to snap a four-game losing streak in the Garden State, having lost at Seton Hall in 2011-12 and three games in the Meadowlands (Saint Joseph's in the 2004 NCAA Tournament, Princeton in the 1997 Jimmy V Classic and Oklahoma State in the 1995 NCAA Tournament) since a win at Fairleigh Dickinson in 1991-92
ROAD WARRIORS
• Wake Forest is 3-1 away from home this season and has already exceded its road/neutral win total of last season (two)
• The Deacons have the only true road win by an ACC team this season
• A win tonight would give Wake four non-conference road/neutral wins for the first time since 2009-10
UP TO THE CHALLENGE
• Wake Forest is 10-4 all-time in the Big Ten/ACC Challenge
• The Demon Deacons' 10 victories in the series is tied for the second-most with Maryland (behind Duke's 14)
• A victory tonight would be Wake's fifth road victory in the challenge, tying Clemson for the most in the event's history
SERIES HISTORY

• Rutgers is one of two first-time opponents on this year's schedule (UMBC)
LAST TIME OUT

• Devin Thomas led Wake with 21 points and nine rebounds
• Cornelius Hudson, making his season debut after being suspended for five games, started in place of Bryant Crawford (illness) and scored 16 points
• The Deacs topped No. 13 Indiana 82-78 and lost to No. 19 Vanderbilt 86-64 in Maui to reach the third place game
