Miami vs Georgia Tech Prediction 

Miami limps into this game trying to snap their lengthy losing streak and they only have six wins on the season, but they will be back on the road here. The Hurricanes have allowed 92 and 97 points in their last two games and they are allowing over 80 points against per game this season. Georgia Tech has won four of their last five games and they have scored 90 and 87 points in their last two home games. The Yellow Jackets are playing some of their best basketball of the season and they should take advantage of this terrible Miami defense. Georgia Tech is probably giving a few more points than they should be, but I can’t back Miami at any number right now. Take the Yellow Jackets here.
