They’re the better rebounding team as well, and they grab more than nine offensive rebounds per game, which will give them more scoring chances. They don’t turn the ball over much, and won’t give up many easy-scoring chances. The Demon Deacons aren’t very good defensively, and they gave up more than 83 points per game in their last three games, so expect them to have a hard time slowing down the Cardinal.
