Match Info
The Wake Forest Demon Deacons fell to the Illinois State Redbirds 78-75 in a tightly contested NCAA basketball game that tipped off on March 23, 2026. This non-conference matchup, played at a neutral or undisclosed venue, was decided in the final moments as Illinois State secured a narrow three-point victory in a game that featured significant momentum swings. The result provided a notable early-season or postseason resume boost for the Redbirds while serving as a tough loss for the Demon Deacons.

Wake Forest came out strong in the second half, using a run fueled by defensive pressure to erase the deficit and briefly take the lead.
