FSU (13-9, 7-4 ACC) plays host to red-hot Virginia (18-5, 9-3 ACC) on Saturday at 8 p.m. in a matchup of two of the top four teams in the league's standings. The game will be broadcast on the CW Network. Tom Werme and Mike Gminski will be on the call.
The Seminoles are coming off a 63-62 win at Boston College, a fourth ACC road victory of the season. FSU has won seven of 10 games in 2024, which obviously looks great. The one big missed opportunity is the 101-92 defeat at Louisville last Saturday.
FSU and Virginia have faced off 56 ties with each team winning 28 times. The Cavaliers won 67-58 in Feb. 2023 and 62-57 in Dec. 2022.
The Seminoles have 209 steals and 90 blocks, and they would become the first ACC team with 200 steals and 100 blocks. Jamir Watkins and Darin Green Jr. lead FSU with 38 steals, while Baba Miller has 26 blocks.
Of note, Virginia comes in with 186 steals and 116 blocks. The Cavaliers are known for a pack-line defense that keeps scoring low and frustrates opponents into turnovers.
Chandler Jackson's status remains uncertain. He is practicing and traveled with the team but did not play in losses to Louisville and a win at BC.
Tonight's referee is ... Jamie Luckie.
