Spread Pick for Colorado State vs. Virginia Tech
-
Virginia Tech Hokies -4.5 (5 units)
Virginia Tech is getting it done at both ends of the court, scoring an average of 92.2 points per game on 47.7% shooting, while holding opponents to 72.8 points per game on 39.8% shooting. Virginia Tech's perimeter defense is holding its opponents to 27.5% shooting from three-point territory, which is 41st-best in the country. Virginia Tech has covered the spread in three of its first five games of the regular season, and in the two games the Hokies did not cover, both were large double-digit spreads as a favorite. Colorado State is shooting well with the 24th-best field goal shooting percentage and 6th-best 3-point shooting percentage, but the Rams have failed to cover the number in two of the last three games. Expect a close game from start to finish, with Virginia Tech's defense making more stops at the end to pick up the victory.
