Result:
WIN

You're not looking at two dynamic offensive teams in this ACC clash: Virginia Tech is last in the ACC in scoring (55.6 ppg) while Georgia Tech ranks 11th in the 15-team league. Virginia Tech is inept on offense, last in shooting (37%), last in free throws (61%) but at least they focus on defense, 5th in the ACC in field goal shooting allowed (41%). Virginia Tech is on a 21-5 run under the total, and the under is 8-0 in the Hokies last 8 road games. The under is 9-3 in the Yellow Jackets last 12 games vs. a team with a winning percentage below .400. Georgia Tech comes off that big win over Syracuse allowing 39% shooting on the road. They slowed it down early holding the Orange to 23 first half points. It won't be hard to hold this Virginia Tech offense down, either, and the UNDER is 21-10-1 in the Yellow Jackets last 32 games following a win. The value here is with a defensive first half, so play the first half UNDER.
