Virginia Opens As a Slight Favorite Over Miami In Tomorrow's ACC Tournament Semifinal Matchup

The Virginia Cavaliers are one win away from an appearance in the ACC Tournament Championship Game.

UVA was able to take down NC State on Thursday, and they will face Miami on Friday night with a spot in the championship game on the line. The Cavaliers already have one victory over the Hurricanes this season, and it was one of the best games of the season in the ACC.

Heading into the game tomorrow night, Virginia has opened as a slight favorite. According to Fanduel Sportsbook, UVA is a 4.5 point favorite against the Hurricanes and the over/under is set at 144.5.

Another win over the Wolfpack

Thursday's win over the Wolfpack was the third of the season over NC State, though it was not as big of a blowout as the previous two games.
