Florida State at Virginia Tech

Virginia Tech will get a lift tonight for two reasons. They just won a big game on the road at Boston College, and they will get Jeff Allen back after serving a two game suspension. Allen is their leading rebounder and second leading scorer. The Hokies have played very well on the road in the ACC, as they have already won at BC and Virginia, and their only blemish at home on the season has been to Duke. They play great defense, holding opponents to under 40% shooting. The road has never been kind to Florida State in ACC play. They have gone just 7-44 over the last 6+ years, and even in the past 2+ years where they won 20 and 22 games, they have won less than half their road games in the ACC. Florida State is alos not playing well right now as they have lost four of their last five and we like Va Tech in this spot at home.
