In their previous three games, the Virginia Tech Hokies have showcased some exceptional performances from their players. One standout player has been MJ Collins, a talented guard who has consistently delivered impressive numbers. In the last game against Notre Dame Fighting Irish, Collins scored 15 points, dished out 4 assists, grabbed 8 rebounds, and made 2 steals. His shooting percentages were also noteworthy, with 40% from the field, 80% from the free-throw line, and an impressive 43% from beyond the arc.


Another player to watch out for is Brandon Rechsteiner, who has shown great potential as a guard for the Hokies. Although he scored only 3 points in the previous game against Notre Dame Fighting Irish, his shooting percentages were remarkable with 50% from both field goals and three-pointers.

Mylyjael Poteat has also been a key contributor to the team's success. As a forward, Poteat displayed his versatility by scoring 8 points and grabbing 8 rebounds in the last game. His shooting percentage was an impressive 60% from both field goals and two-pointers.


On the other side of the court, the Florida State Seminoles have their own set of talented players ready to make an impact. Cam Corhen has been a force to be reckoned with as a forward for the Seminoles. In their previous game against Miami (FL) Hurricanes, Corhen scored an impressive 26 points while shooting at a remarkable 50% from the field and 53% from beyond the arc.

Jamir Watkins, another forward for the Seminoles, has also been a standout performer. In their last game against Pittsburgh Panthers, Watkins scored 16 points, grabbed 11 rebounds, and made 4 steals. His shooting percentages were solid with 31% from the field and 75% from the free-throw line.


Based on the statistics from the previous three games, it is clear that both teams have players who can make a significant impact on the outcome of the game. The Virginia Tech Hokies will rely on MJ Collins' scoring ability and playmaking skills to lead them to victory. However, they must also be wary of Cam Corhen's scoring prowess and Jamir Watkins' all-around contributions for the Florida State Seminoles.


The upcoming game between the Virginia Tech Hokies and the Florida State Seminoles is expected to be a thrilling contest between two talented teams. Fans can catch all the action live on ESPN at 12:00 PM Eastern Time on March 13th, 2024.
