Virginia Tech hasn’t been a consistent team this season, but the Hokies have been pretty consistent at home. They are 4-1 in ACC play at home, with the lone loss coming by just five points. The Cavs will make this a defensive grind, but that makes it tougher to pull away from the opponent as well. They have actually lost three of their last six road games, so I don’t expect them to win by much, if they win at all.
