The VCU Rams are 4-3 this season after they lost to Vanderbilt by a score of 89-74 in their last game. VCU trailed 43-41 at halftime and was outscored 46-33 in the second half for the double digit loss. The Rams shot 36% from the field, 24% on three pointers, and 77% on free throws in the game.

Virginia Tech Hokies Betting Preview

The Virginia Tech Hokies are 6-1 this year after they lost to St. Mary’s by a score of 77-66 in their last game. Virginia Tech trailed 31-20 at halftime, but did score 46 points in the second half in the loss. The Hokies shot 31% from the field, 23% on three pointers, and 85% on free throws in the game. Amani Hansberry led Virginia Tech with 18 points and 10 rebounds, while Jaden Schutt added 17 points and one assist in the loss.

The Hokies have scored 87.8 points per game with 40.2 rebounds and 16.3 assists per game, while they have allowed 71.3 points against per game this season. Neoklis Avdalas is averaging 14.8 points and 5.2 assists per game, while Amani Hansberry is averaging 14.8 points and 7.4 rebounds per game for the Hokies. Virginia Tech is shooting 47.4% from the field, 71.5% on free throws, and 35.3% on three pointers this year. 

Why the Virginia Tech Hokies will win

  • Virginia Tech has won six of its last seven games against non-Conference opponents.
  • VCU has lost three of its last four games played at neutral venues.
  • VCU has lost the first half in three of its last four games against non-Conference opponents at neutral venues.

Why the VCU Rams will win

  • VCU has won each of its last six day games against non-AP-ranked opponents at a neutral venue.
  • Virginia Tech has lost seven of its last nine games against non-AP-ranked opponents at a neutral venue.
  • Virginia Tech has lost the first half in six of its last eight games played at neutral venues.

VCU vs Virginia Tech Prediction 

Virginia Tech picked up their first loss of the season against St. Mary’s on Thursday, so they will try to get back on the right track here. The Hokies are shooting 47% from the field, but they have relied on their defense, as they have allowed 64 points or fewer in three of their last five. VCU has split their last four games and they have allowed 85 and 89 points in those two losses. The Rams are shooting 45% from the field and while they struggled to get stops in those two losses, I think they will be fine against this Virginia Tech attack. I think we are going to see a slower paced game here and I like the under.
