FSU basketball: FSU vs. Virginia Tech Line, Predictions, Odds, TV Channel & Live Stream Info
By Kelvin Hunt
FSU basketball will take on Virginia Tech looking to rebound from a disappointing loss against Georgia Tech Wednesday night. We discuss the betting odds, how to watch, and a prediction.
FSU basketball (13-6, 6-3 ACC) comes into the game needing a win to get back on track in their hopes of making the ACC Tournament.
Virginia Tech (10-10, 2-7 ACC) is 0-3 in their last three outings, with the last outing a three-point loss against Miami.
FSU basketball vs. Virginia Tech Odds and Prediction
WynnBET’s updated odds have the Noles as -2 point betting favorites at home. The over/under point total is 132.5, which implies a 67-65 type of game. Virginia Tech checks in at No. 45 in the latest KenPom rankings, and the Noles checked in at No. 72. Virginia Tech has the No. 40 ranked offense and the No. 65 defense. The Hokies average 69 ppg and have four starters averaging double figures while shooting 46 percent from the floor. They average 39 percent from three-point land and 74.5 percent from the charity stripe. They only average 11 turnovers per game.
When you look at the stats, it’s hard to believe the Hokies are a .500 basketball team and why Ken Pom likes them so much. Almost all of their losses have been against ranked teams or fairly close losses. The Noles will go into this one without starter Malik Osborne who’ll have season-ending surgery on his ankle. It’s going to be a tall task for a team that looked lost against a zone defense, and they’ll see plenty of it from the Hokies Saturday afternoon. Unless the ‘Noles offense finds life similar to the rematch against Syracuse, I don’t expect the Noles to win. However, they play like a different team at home and Virginia Tech has had games where they look lost as well. This will be Virginia Tech’s third game in five days, which could be a factor.
Prediction: Virginia Tech 69, FSU 65
