Game Preview: #7 Hokies Battle #2 Florida State in ACC Quarterfinals

Virginia Tech played one heck of a second half in last night’s ACC Second Round victory against the Wake Forest Demon Deacons. After a lackadaisical first half filled with below-average defense and plenty of missed open shots, the Hokies tightened the reigns in the second half to overcome their 44-37 halftime deficit and win, 99-90. Tech outscored Wake Forest 62-46 in the second half flurry to overtake the Demon Deacons.

That second half version of the Hokies will need to be the team that shows up for a full 40 minutes on Thursday night, as Tech takes quite a step up in competition as they face the Florida State Seminoles.
