BLACKSBURG — Virginia Tech’s 2021 schedule was released by the ACC on Wednesday night, slating the Hokies for 29 matchups as they look to make their second straight NCAA tournament appearance. Last season marked the first NCAA tournament appearance in 15 years for Tech, as it fell in the second round to Baylor after finishing the 2020 season with a 15-10 record, 8-8 in the ACC.
The Hokies open up the year with five non-conference games before making the trip to Puerto Rico for the San Juan Shootout where they’ll face Missouri State and UT-Martin.
Four days later, Virginia Tech will take on Wisconsin in the Big Ten/ACC challenge. The Hokies have won five straight matchups in the Big Ten/ACC challenge, most recently taking down Purdue in 2019, 67-54.
Virginia Tech faces three more non-conference games against Tennessee, Liberty and Radford prior to beginning ACC play.
Tech’s first ACC game is against Florida State on December 19 in Tallahassee.
