Chattanooga at Virginia Tech 12/11/19 - College Basketball Picks & Predictions

The Chattanooga Mocs are set to visit Cassell Coliseum in Blacksburg, Virginia for a non-conference clash against the Virginia Tech Hokies. The Chattanooga Mocs come into this matchup with a 6-4 record, and they will be looking to continue their success after winning their recent home game against Tennessee Wesleyan, 99-51. Leading the way for the Chattanooga Mocs was senior guard Matt Ryan as he recorded 18 points and 4 rebounds. Junior forward Ramon Vila had a productive outing for the Mocs as he pitched in 16 points and 3 rebounds.

The Chattanooga Mocs had a good shooting game against Tennessee Wesleyan as they connected on 38 of their 66 field goal attempts (57.6%), but they were significantly worse from behind the three-point line (38.1%). The Chattanooga Mocs won the turnover battle against Tennessee Wesleyan (21-13), and they dominated them in the rebounding department (46-19).

The Virginia Tech Hokies come into this matchup with a 6-3 record, and they will be looking to rebound after dropping their recent home game against the Duke Blue Devils, 77-63. Leading the way for the Virginia Tech Hokies was junior forward P.J. Horne as he recorded 15 points and 6 rebounds. Junior guard Wabissa Bede had a productive outing for the Hokies as he pitched in 12 points, 5 assists, and 4 rebounds.

The Virginia Tech Hokies had a good shooting game against the Duke Blue Devils as they connected on 27 of their 56 field goal attempts (48.2%), but they were significantly worse from behind the three-point line (25%). The Virginia Tech Hokies lost the turnover battle against the Duke Blue Devils (14-7), and they were edged out by the Blue Devils in the rebounding department (32-31).

The Virginia Tech Hokies have had some tough losses this season as they have played BYU, Dayton, and Duke, but they should have no problem blowing the doors open on Chattanooga. The Hokies are extremely young under 1st-year coach Mike Young, but freshman guard Landers Nolley II has shouldered most of the production for the Hokies as he is averaging 18.6 PPG and 5.4 RPG. The biggest question for Chattanooga will be if they can match Virginia Tech on the scoreboard as they rank 223rd in points scored, but that will be tough on the road for the Mocs. Expect Virginia Tech to avenge their Duke loss with a big win at home. Final Score Prediction, Virginia Tech Hokies win and cover ATS 75-59.
