Virginia Cavaliers vs Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets Prediction, Odds and Picks for Today, 03/12/25

It’s Championship Week, and there will be plenty of excitement on Wednesday as the ACC Tournament continues with Virginia and Georgia Tech taking the court. The last time these 2 teams faced, Virginia walked away with a 75-61 victory. Virginia finished 9th in the ACC this season, averaging 64.9 ppg and giving up 66.8 ppg. As for Georgia Tech, it finished eighth in the ACC while averaging 73.7 ppg and giving up 72.6 ppg. Virginia is a slight underdog heading into this matchup, but I think it has the better chance to advance and face Duke.

I think Virginia’s shot-making ability gives them a slight edge in this matchup. UVA was fourth in the ACC in 3-point shooting percentage this season at 37.6%; Georgia Tech sits in 10th, where it hits 33.9% of their shots from deep. Another huge advantage Virginia has is from the free-throw line. Virginia is shooting 75.1% from the line while Georgia Tech comes in at 68.1% at that department, which could play a big role in this game. It is true that Georgia Tech has the rebounding advantage in this matchup; it averages 40.7 rebounds per game compared to Virginia’s 31.9. At the end of the day, I think Virginia will find success against this Georgia Tech defense that allows their opponents to shoot 35% from deep, plus Virginia’s stingy defense will probably be able to slow down the Yellow Jackets’ offense — making the Hoosiers my best bet of the day. 

Virginia vs Georgia Tech prediction: Virginia +1 (-110) available at time of publishing. Playable at that number.
