What to Know

The Pittsburgh Panthers are 2-7 against the Virginia Tech Hokies since January of 2016, but they'll have a chance to close the gap a little bit Saturday. Pitt and Virginia Tech will face off in an ACC battle at 5 p.m. ET at Cassell Coliseum. The Panthers should still be riding high after a victory, while Virginia Tech will be looking to get back in the win column.

Pitt didn't have too much trouble with the Boston College Eagles at home on Tuesday as they won 77-58. Pitt got double-digit scores from five players: forward Blake Hinson (21), guard Greg Elliott (14), guard Nelly Cummings (11), guard Jamarius Burton (10), and center Federiko Federiko (10). Federiko Federiko has also now had at least three blocks in his past five games.

Meanwhile, the Hokies came up short against the Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets on Wednesday, falling 77-70. Forward Justyn Mutts put forth a good effort for the losing side as he almost dropped a triple-double on 17 points, 11 rebounds, and nine dimes.

The Panthers are expected to lose this next one by 5. They are currently five-for-five against the spread in their most recent games, however, a trend bettors might want to take into account.

Virginia Tech's loss took them down to 15-11 while Pittsburgh's win pulled them up to 19-7. On Tuesday Pitt relied heavily on Blake Hinson, who shot 6-for-11 from beyond the arc and finished with 21 points and seven boards. It will be up to Virginia Tech's defense to limit his damage.
