Virginia Tech Hokies vs. Clemson Tigers Prediction
This matchup features Virginia Tech’s offensive pace and quality frontcourt scoring against a Clemson Tigers team that has been dominant at home (11-1) in 2025. Additionally, the Tigers are one of the top defensive teams in the nation. Virginia Tech’s recent road struggles and defensive volatility make the Hokies difficult to trust in this environment, especially against a Tigers team that plays exceptionally well at home. With that said, I am backing the Clemson Tigers to win this game and cover the 8.5 points.
