Vegas knew — as usual. Virginia Tech 79, Pitt 72. The Panthers arrived at Cassell Coliseum not only atop the standings but also riding a six-game winning streak and boasting the league's best road record. The Hokies trumped those trends with sterling 3-point defense and another scoring outburst from forward Grant Basile.
