Virginia Tech basketball: Hokies set to play No. 3 Villanova on Saturday

The Virginia Tech Hokies were set to play the Temple Owls on Saturday in the Air Force Reserve Basketball Hall of Fame Tip-Off Tournament at the Mohegan Sun Arena in Uncasville, Conn.

However, a recent outbreak of COVID-19 at Temple forced the Owls to have to cancel the game, leaving Virginia Tech without an opponent for the event.

Enter Villanova.

Anybody still up? The decision is in at 1:45 a.m.—Villanova is staying for another game in Bubbleville and will play Virginia Tech at 8 p.m. on Saturday night, source tells CBS Sports.
