Welcome to Charlotte, North Carolina, for the Duke's Mayo Bowl between the Wake Forest Demon Deacons and the Mississippi State Bulldogs! It has been a pleasure to be in the Queen City for the holiday and bowl game festivities—I even got a commemorative jar of mayo!

Reviewing the 2025 season was a blast! While there were certainly ups and downs, covering the Deacs this season has been an unforgettable experience.

Go check out my naughty and nice list for the 2025 season, and Happy Holidays!!

One thing about the WVU fanbase is that they TRAVEL far and wide to see the Mountaineers in action. Today, in their state's capital is no different. It's packed, and it's LOUD.

Juke Harris hits an and-one three, and we are at the under-16 media timeout. Harris has all of Wake's points.

Lineup for tonight's Hoopfest. Deacs' starting five is the usual, except Myles Colvin is starting in place of Mekhi Mason.

[Blake Robison @BlakeARobison]

Welcome to Charleston, West Virginia, for the Holiday Hoopfest between the Wake Forest Demon Deacons and WVU Mountaineers! This is a colliding of worlds for sure, as I am a proud WV native and a proud Wake Forest student.

Tipoff is at 6:00!!

[Blake Robison @BlakeARobison]

@sam_kinney18 @stevebowery I heard the Civic Center has a capacity of ~11,000, and they sold ~10,000 tickets. Guess we'll see if that holds true!

[Blake Robison @BlakeARobison]

@sam_kinney18 @stevebowery Charleston is the state's capital, so it's quite built up. WVU fans travel like no other, so it HEAVILY favors them tonight.

[Blake Robison @BlakeARobison]

On paper, the Deacs and Tar Heels are neck and neck, making this Saturday's matchup even more dramatic!

[Barry Lewis @BarryRLewis]

What to Expect from Wake's Tussle with the Tar Heels

The Deacs might be bowl-bound, but their story is far from finished, and it starts with archrival UNC.
