Men's Basketball vs Notre Dame Jan 15 at 6PM

The Hokies host Notre Dame in Cassell Coliseum today at 6 PM. The Hokies are favored by 6.5 with the over/under at 132. Notre Dame(10-5, 4-1) is on a 6 game winning streak and the Hokies(8-7, 0-4) are on a 3 game losing streak.
When I first moved to the Pittsburgh, the Pirates play by play announcer was Bob "The Gunner" Prince. One of his theories involved "Hidden Vigorish". His theory was that no streak lasts forever; so the longer a streak, the more likelihood that the next game would end the streak. Let's hope "Hidden Vigorish" favors the Hokies tonight.

SCHEDULE

Notre Dame roster matches up fairly well with VT. They play a 7 man rotation that has a lot of seniority. with the exception of their Freshman guard, all of their regular players are a year older than their eligibility probably because of the Covid year.

ROSTER

I don't have much time for analysis this morning; so here's the stats. Maybe Shelton will put something up about the game.



The scoring leaders on the team are guards. ND makes about 9 three's per game; so guarding out to the line and keeping track of players will be important today. 6'9 forward Paul Atkinson, Jr. is the third leading scorer. He's shooting 60% with no three's; I'm guessing he spends a lot of time in the paint. The other big 6'10 Laszewski is more versatile shooting almost 50% overall and 45% from three. That's all I have time for today.

LET'S GO HOKIES
