Why Virginia Will Win

Virginia keeps on being Virginia.

It might have had a clunker against Virginia Tech with the team couldn’t shoot, but that was the only time this season when the team didn’t hit at last 40% from the field.

This is still one of the sharpest teams in college basketball when it comes to taking care of the ball, it’s still among the best in the country at hitting from the outside, and Georgia Tech is awful at defending from three. But …

Why Georgia Tech Will Win

Georgia Tech almost picked off the Cavaliers a few weeks ago. Virginia pulled off a 64-62 win at home, but the Yellow Jackets were able to slow things down, keep the score low, and were fantastic from three.

They don’t screw up – they’re not going to give the Cavaliers a slew of easy points – and they’re able to be aggressive with a defensive style that controls games.

Basically, Georgia Tech is sort of Virginia lite at times, but there’s one other quirky key to this team …

What’s Going To Happen

Georgia Tech is freakishly good at home compared to being on the road.

It lost three of its last five games – all of the defeats were on the road. The ream is 9-4 in its last 13 games going 8-0 at home and 1-4 on the road.

Virginia is good enough to get past the road game aspect, but it’s going to be a tight, low scoring game that comes down to free throws late. Virginia will hit its key chances, and Georgia Tech will blink with a few misses on its side.

Why Georgia Tech Will Win

It’s one of the better teams in the country when it comes to turnover margin and taking the ball away. The defensive pressure generates a whole lot of points – the Yellow Jackets lead the ACC in scoring – and they like to get on the move.

That’s not Virginia.

It’s not not like the Cavaliers don’t score, but they still what they do so well. Part of that involves playing great defense and not making a whole lot of mistakes, but Georgia Tech can crank up the offense enough to bust the Cavaliers out of their style …

Maybe, because …

Why Virginia Will Win

Virginia always gets tagged with the boring-offensive-team thing, but it cranked it up over the last two games with a whole lot of threes in wins over Notre Dame and Clemson.

The Cavaliers might not crank up a whole lot of shots from the outside on a regular basis, but they hit well over half of them in three of their last four games. As always, they don’t turn the ball over, they don’t give up cheap fouls, and no one moves the ball around better to come up with easy shots.

What’s Going To Happen

Georgia Tech is playing well enough to come up with the upset if it three are falling right away – it made up for a whole slew of problems in the win over Clemson by hitting just about everything from the outside – but Virginia isn’t going to give up enough easy points to pull it off.
