Miami Florida at Virginia Tech

I picked against Miami last week and I was dead wrong. Their team speed absolutely dominated Georgia Tech. But, I am going to fade them again this week. I guess I'm a glutton for punishment. In a game that started out as a pick'em, the home team is now getting points. I think this is an overreaction to what happened last week in primetime. Over 77% of the public is on Miami here thanks to that thrashing of the Yellow Jackets. It's been four years since these two teams were ranked heading into their matchup. If Miami can pull off this win, it will be the first time they've won three straight games vs. Top 25 teams since 2001. I just think it's asking too much for them to win this game on the road, versus a good Tech team after two tussles with Top 25 teams. This is the third big game for them and they are going into a hostile environment against the #11 ranked team in the nation. The Hokies are 36-23 ATS in September games under Frank Beamer and 60-43 ATS after back-to-back wins. I like the Hokies at home with the points.
