The Hokies have been favored in the past two matchups.

NC State is 15-2 Against the Spread as the favorite this year, and Virginia Tech is 1-2 as the underdog.

Despite the Vegas odds, KenPom (46% chance of victory) and ESPN’s Matchup Predictor (43.8% chance of victory) both pick the Wolfpack to lose in a nail biter.

Those percentages would be higher if we knew whether or not Hokies star guard Justin Robinson was going to be able to play or not. He’s listed as doubtful, but hasn’t been ruled out.
