The men play Georgia Tech tonight at 7PM at Georgia Tech. Georgia Tech is a 2.5 point favorite. Georgia Tech has played an interesting schedule with a trip to Spain in August and a trip to Hawaii in December. They are 10-12 and 4-7 in the ACC. Six of their 12 losses are to ranked teams. In the ACC they have lost to Syracuse, at FSU, to Duke, Notre Dame, Virginia, Louisville, and at Notre Dame. Their wins are at NC State, at North Caroline, at BC and home to NC State.
They will not be as big a challenge heightwise as some teams we have played; but they will be taller and older than the Hokies. Their scoring is pretty balanced with four players in double figures in ACC play.
Georgia Tech is a decent shooting team averaging 46% overall and 32% from three. They score 70 points per game; but have allowed 73. They allow 43% overall and 35% from three. They foul frequently; they have had 9 players foul out in 11 games. They average 15 assists and 15 TO's per game. They basically play 6 players most of the game; so, if we can get to their bench, we may have an advantage.
Stats:
Vegas thinks Georgia Tech will win, primarily because they are at home. But my O&M glasses see a good chance for the Hokies to pull one out here. They should be a little more rested after being in Bburg for a few days after their brutal travel schedule the last week of January. If someone can give Radford a little help both on the boards and in scoring, the Hokies should have a good chance in this game. It would be great to see some guys getting good looks; so Bede does not feel the need to throw up prayers at the end of the shot clock. Georgia Tech has not forced a lot of TO's(12/game); so we should get shots on most possessions given our TO record. If we can shoot to our average, this could be an easier game than some people expect. It will be interesting to see if CMY has made any adjustments to our offense, since it appears defenses are beginning to adjust to our offensive tendencies.
Go Hokies!
