Pro Picks
Virginia Tech at Pittsburgh
It is hard to visualize Virginia Tech staying in this game with an offense that has struggled all season. They managed a season-high 27 vs FCS Wofford, and in their 4 FBS games, they have managed 64 points in four games or 16 PPG. The Hokies are averaging 261 yards per game vs 3 P5 opponents on the season. The Hokies do have an above-average defense, while Pittsburgh has generated better offense than expected. The question is this. Can Virginia hold down Pittsburgh enough, and generate enough offense to squeeze out the cover? History says yes. Conference road dogs with a total of 46 points or fewer and a line of greater than 5 points are 328-216-18 ATS. Taking sizable dogs with a strong defense is the theme and applies here. Make the play on Virginia Tech.
