Virginia Tech vs Michigan Prediction

I’m with Michigan here. I get that this is still a bit early to crown Michigan, but Dusty May’s group looks really solid and Virginia Tech just looks like they’re lacking punch. I mean a blowout loss to Penn State in your only other neutral floor game and a loss at home to Jacksonville is not a good look for Virginia Tech. Give me the Wolverines big.
