The time is here for Virginia Tech’s opening-round game against the Texas Longhorns in the NCAA Tournament. The Hokies head into Friday’s East Region game with plenty of momentum, winning 13 of their last 15 games, including four in a row last week, to win the first ACC Tournament in school history.
Can the Hokies keep that positive momentum against the Longhorns? A quick look at Texas, and you’ll see the Longhorns have lost three consecutive games entering the tournament. You should probably ignore that statistic. It does not matter now. Neither does Tech’s historical performance in the ACC Tournament.
