From a standings perspective, the two worst teams in the ACC will look to pick up their first win in conference play. The Miami Hurricanes (4-9, 0-2) will stay on the road and battle the Virginia Tech Hokies (5-8, 0-2) Saturday afternoon at the Cassell Coliseum.

Miami continues to find ways to lose games after a strong showing. The issue is not being about to finish games. Virginia Tech is the opposite. They have lost games by constant blowouts but their most recent game was a victory against Navy.

The star of the Hurricanes this season has been Matthew Cleveland who has started to find his own.

Against Boston College he was all over the floor playing like the huge guard that he is.

Cleveland has been the loan's bright spot this season as he had another impressive performance. He finished the game with a game-high 21 points, shooting 7-17 FG, 2-4 3FG adding in three blocks and one steal.

The Hurricanes will look to get the first conference win of the season as they try to push towards an attempt at the ACC Tournament.
