NCAAB: Monday's play

Play: Virginia Tech -1 -110

Time: 9 p.m. ET

TV: ESPNU

Reasoning: The Hokies are 9-7 at home and have ACC wins over Pittsburgh and Georgia Tech. Boston College is 1-7 on the road and averages just 60 ppg (minus-8.9 scoring differential) in those games. The Eagles had lost nine straight before Saturday's upset of N.C. State.Virginia Tech's strength is its perimeter shooting. Adam Smith cans 43.6% of his threes and Justin Bibbs hits on 42.7% of his tries. B.C. allows opponents 37.8% shooting on threes and the Hokies connect on 40.4% at home. Va Tech can hang on the glass, commits fewer turnovers and blocks more shots.

Record: 302-222-11 (57.6%)
Bankroll: +291.64%
