BLACKSBURG – Virginia Tech and Old Dominion square off in a few hours in what will be the first meeting between the two in-state programs.
The Hokies, ranked No. 13 nationally, enter the game at 3-0 and looking to go 4-0 for the first time since 2011, while the Monarchs, who lost to ACC foe North Carolina last week, are 2-1. The game marks the last non-conference game of the season for Tech, which opens ACC play next weekend with a monumental game against No. 2 Clemson.
But Tech better not view this ODU game as a simple tune up for the Tigers.
