Miami Florida Hurricanes at Virginia Tech Hokies Prediction

Miami has been on an exceptional run. They’ve dropped two contests in their last ten with a let down loss to FSU after shocking UNC and a five point road loss to Louisville. The Hurricanes have three high quality wins in that stretch beating the Tar Heels at home, UVA on the road and Duke at home over the 10 games. Virginia Tech has just one defeat this season at home losing to Notre Dame back in the middle of January and has strung together four straight wins since that time. They come into this game winners of four of their last five overall and while they were on the losing end in an earlier match-up on the road against Miami the margin was six points and the Hokies play far superior at home. Look for the Hurricanes to regress off of their win over Duke.
