Fargo's CBB Late Powerhouse (78-59-4 Run)

This is a play on the STANFORD CARDINAL for our CBB Late Powerhouse. Wake Forest snapped a two-game slide against Louisville and Duke with a win over Pittsburgh by a bucket as it lost the cover on a Panthers last second three-pointer that rattled in. The Demon Deacons are 8-3 in the Atlantic Coast Conference but are just No. 68 in the NET Rankings and remain one of the last four teams out for the NCAA Tournament. They hit the road where they are 3-4 with the wins coming against three of the four lowest ranked teams in the conference and now head west for a pair of games. This is actually a Quad 1 game and the Demon Deacons have lost their last six games from this quadrant. Stanford has had a solid first season in the conference as it is 7-4 following a 24-point loss at SMU which put an end to a four-game winning streak which included solid wins over North Carolina and Florida St. but the resume is not good enough for an NCAA Tournament berth as the Cardinal are not even part of the last four out despite being just five spots behind Wake forest in the NET Rankings. Stanford is 12-1 at home and this is its first Quad 2 home game. 10* (760) Stanford Cardinal
