Three games on the ACC schedule today with the featured matchup having UNC playing at Miami. Check out the video below from ACC Live previewing the matchup of two of the top three teams in the ACC standings.
Previewing UNC at Miami
FSU at Wake Forest
FSU travels to Wake Forest in a noon matchup. The Noles are 5-4 in league play and will head to Wake Forest where a young Demon Deacon team has played well this season. Two really interesting matchups to watch are CJ Harris and Michael Snaer and Travis McKie and Okaro White. My guess is the experienced players will cancel each other out and the young guys will decide this one.
Georgia Tech at Virginia Tech
Georgia Tech visits Blacksburg today at 1 in a matchup of two teams tied for last in the ACC standings. Hard not to go with the home team in this one. The Hokies have Erick Green and Georgia Tech doesn't have a good matchup for him. Look for Green to go for 40 points today or end up setting up his teammates for some easy baskets.
