Miami vs Georgia Tech Picks and Prediction
There is a lot to like about the Miami Hurricanes in this matchup. They capitalize on forcing turnovers and running in transition, and the Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets had 23 turnovers in their last game against the Virginia Cavaliers.
Isaiah Wong has been a star for the Hurricanes. He is averaging 17.1 points, 4.6 rebounds, 4.4 assists, and 1.7 steals. He leads four players in double figures, including forward Norchad Omier, who is third in scoring at 13.8 points and is the leading rebounder at 9.6 and top shot blocker at 1.5. Those two lead an athletic group at both ends of the court.
Meanwhile, the Yellow Jackets have just Miles Kelly in double figures at 14.1 points per game. He is shooting 40.0% on 3-point shots. Forward Ja’Von Franklin is the top rebounder at 6.2 per game and shot blocker with 1.8. Four players average at least 8.4 points per game, but Georgia Tech is known for its half-court offense, which has been rather inefficient this season.
Given the season trends, though, the Hurricanes appear to be looking at a 5-0 record in ACC play. As Larranaga’s teams do from time to time, Miami is surprising people and may make a deep NCAA Tournament run come March.
The Miami Hurricanes are listed at -275 in our Vegas NCAAB Lines. This means that if you wager $100 on the Hurricanes, you have a chance to win $36. The Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets are +225, offering a chance to win $225.
The implied probability attached to the betting lines gives the Hurricanes a 73.33% chance to win, with the Yellow Jackets at 30.77%.
