We have a natural rivalry in the ACC between Virginia and Virginia Tech, as the Cavaliers make the short trip from Charlottesville to Blacksburg. Tech has had its moments on the court this season, but has yet to take down a quality opponent and is building the win column with lots of cupcakes. I'd have to say their biggest win on the season so far has been against St. John's who will be at or near the bottom of the Big East. What might be more telling are their narrow wins over Gardner Webb by three points and Mount Saint Mary's by five - both on their home court. The Cavs have taken a similar ride, except they just beat Georgia Tech and have put away teams they should beat by big margins, which hasn't been the case for the Hokies. I have to think that the Cavs can hang close or spring the upset here, so I'll grab the points.
