Here is What ESPN's BPI is Saying About Georgia Tech's Matchup With Miami

Will Georgia Tech be able to pull off an upset on the road vs Miami?

Georgia Tech is back in action today and this time they are on the road vs Miami. The Yellow Jackets will be trying to get a win vs the Hurricanes, a team they have actually had success against over the years. Neither team is playing well coming into this game, with Miami going from preseason ACC contender to near the bottom of the standings. Georgia Tech has had moments where they have won big games, but they are not consistent and their games have started to become more lopsided. 

The oddsmakers have Miami as a big favorite and they are not the only ones. ESPN's BPI is giving Georgia Tech only a 13% chance of winning this game. Despite Miami losing five in a row, including a 29 point loss to Duke on Wednesday, BPI says that Miami is likely going to win this game and maybe even win it big. 

But what is BPI? Here is how ESPN describes it:

"The Basketball Power Index (BPI) is a measure of team strength that is meant to be the best predictor of performance going forward. BPI represents how many points above or below average a team is. Strength of Record (SOR) is a measure of team accomplishment based on how difficult a team's W-L record is to achieve. Game predictions account for opponent strength, pace of play, site, travel distance, day's rest and altitude, and are used to simulate the season 10,000 times to produce season projections. Numbers update daily."

Here is how you can watch this afternoon's game.
