College basketball odds, picks and predictions for Florida State Seminoles vs Virginia Tech Hokies. NCAAB betting free pick and best bet analysis.
Virginia Tech enters the ACC Tournament in a much better groove than the Seminoles who are struggling coming into Wednesday. Our college basketball picks expect VT to do enough on offense to send Florida State packing.favorites, the No. 8 and No. 9 seeds enjoyed a first-round bye. But just how these programs ended up in this matchup leads us down two different paths.
The Seminoles — who rank among the worst outside shooting teams in the ACC — hit 12 of their 33 attempts from beyond the arc with the bulk of those long-range looks from Darin Green Jr., who finished 8-for-15 from deep. Virginia Tech’s offense was clicking during that trio of wins, averaging 83 points on an effective field goal rate of 58.8%. That’s nothing new for VT, which leads the ACC in that advanced metric and has scored 80 points or more in five of its final eight games.
Sean Pedulla is projected to flirt with 20 points in this ACC tournament opener after he scored 19 and 26 points in the two matchups against FSU this season. Florida State’s offense is full of sound and fury, ranked as the top tempo in the conference. However, that pace hasn’t always bred points with FSU struggling to score consistently. Leonard Hamilton’s crew has only three player averaging double figures and isn’t a great shooting squad, leaving it to struggle in a halfcourt game.
