Quick question: which Virginia Tech win was more impressive, last year’s upset of #3 Michigan State or this year’s upset of #3 Villanova?
It’s a good question.
Last year though the Hokies were a bit of an unknown and lacked any semblance of an inside game so that win was really tremendous.
This year however, Virginia Tech agreed to play Villanova with just two days preparation and consider this too: Michigan State almost always starts the season slow. That’s not the case for the Wildcats.
Then again, this year the Hokies have some meaningful size with six guys 6-8 or better.
