The Hokies go on a cougar hunt Wednesday night in the Cassell, hoping to knock off the byu cougars in Tech’s final out of conference game of the regular season. Tech is 11-3 away from the ACC, and had won six in a row to close out 2011.

byu is coming off a 32-5 season that saw them make the Sweet 16, losing to florida in overtime. But All-American Jimmer Fredette, who was open from the time he walked in the arena, is gone, averaging 7.6 ppg for Sacramento in the NBA. Their second leading scorer, Jackson Emery, is also gone.

This year 6’8″ senior Noah Hartsock has really stepped up his game, up from 8.5 ppg last year to 17.5 this year. He’s shooting 58% from the field and can tear it up down low, or with a nice midrange shot. Brandon Davies (their third leading scorer last year), Matt Carlino (their PG and leading assist man this year), and Charles Abouo all average between 11.5 and 14.1 ppg. The final starter, wing Brock Zlystra, averages 9.0. They score a lot and will push the ball, averaging 80 ppg. But they don’t get much off their bench, especially with Stephen Rogers battling injuries. They also shoot a lot of 3-pointers, averaging 7.4 makes per game. They have eight players that average more than one 3-point attempt per game (VT has just five with more than nine attempts). Let’s hope they come out uva-cold from deep.
