This is getting ugly

Wake 86, State 75

The Wolfpack (13-10, 3-7) had won three straight against their oldest rivalry, but not even a sensational performance from Julius Hodge could stop their slide toward the NIT. Benched for showing up late for a team function -- the second time this season that's happened -- the reigning ACC player of the year made his first 10 shots and scored 27 points.
