GT was averaging 219 ypg rushing -- I wonder how many they have tonight?
 
Anybody know?
 
If VT doesn't go into a stupid 'prevent' defense, they should be ok.

Pat'sGrl....I had two nephews graduate from Texas A&M. One is a 4th year resident plastic surgeon. The other got his masters there also. Are you going there, or is that too personal? Ok, if so.

 I attend UTA (dallas).. and I'm going for something in the medical field as well.. and wow, it sounds like you're nephew is doing great being a 4th year resident for surgery.  You should be proud.

2.68 units on 1st score NOT a touchdown+185 and up=winner.
1 unit on GT teased=house keeper. (busted my perfect nite as well)
1 unit on VT teased=winner.
6 units on the LOW on the Total, teased & SU=winner.

Definitely taking Ga. Tech in this one.  82% of the public is on Va. Tech getting 2.5 (it started at 90%/10%) and Va. Tech will probably stay favored by the public by a high percentag and I don't think the line will move down much like it did in the USF/Rutgers game to get action on USF.  Here are a few reasons why I like Ga. Tech (for those of you who think I bet using only public money): 

-Ga. Tech has averaged 457.3 yds/game last 3 whereas Va. Tech has averaged 309/game last 3.  In conference games Ga. Tech averages 347 yds/game and Va. Tech averages 292/game in conference.  Ga. Tech controls the ball an average of 5 minutes/game more than their opponent at home, Va. Tech virtualy the opposite on road (Ga. Tech O at home T.O.P=32:06, D at home T.O.P=27:54/Va. Tech O on road T.O.P.=27:13, D on road T.O.P=32:47). 

-I would be careful in taking Ga. Tech at the half, they start out slow averaging 7.7 pts in first half (6.8 vs. conference).  Their opponents averaging 12.7 in first half last three (conference opps. are avging.13.2 against).  Va. Tech averaging. 24 pts in first half last three allowing only 5 in first half last three (conf. opps. avging. 4.5 against).  Although Ga. Tech's D only allowing 6.7 pts in first half at home with the O averaging 16.  Va. Tech. Still like Va. Tech first 1/2.  I like Va. Tech up by a field goal at 1/2.

-Ga. Tech averaging 31.5 at home/Va. Tech 30.3 on the road.  At home though, Ga. Tech's defense allowing only 12.7 at home.  I am going against most everyone here and am going to take the Over.  This game ALWAYS goes over.   3 of 3 since '92 have been over, 2 of 2 in last 3 seasons have gone over.  At Ga. Tech 1 of 1 has gone over.  I think it isn't in the thirties for a reason, not sure why, but both teams will probably put up some points.  Ga. Tech 0-3 O-U at home/ Va. Tech 3-0 O-U on road. I think the over hits in final minutes to give Ga. Tech the cover and hit the over.

 Will write more later but that's what I like as of right now.

Va. Tech 1st H...1 unit

Ga. Tech -2.5...2 units

Over...1 unit

Final Score

Va. Tech-20

Ga. Tech-24

Neither team is much on passing, as they're both equally ugly. So it could come down to the running game, where GT is 14th in the country, averaging 100 yards more than VT!  The Jackets should have an easier time keeping the Hokies D on the field, rather than vice versa.
 
No way will I back that Hokies offense, especially a big game on the road. Hopefully more people jump on the Hokies for an even better line.
 
 
uh - go gatech?  yeah i think so biatches - finally something i have to go on - i am backing gtech for the simple reason that vatech fans on here are morons..... give me more fodder .....really...please

WAY TO CAP ZENBUTCHER13 !!! 

US MORONS SEEM TO HAVE TAKEN HOME THE BACON,

WHILE YOU GET THE PIGTAIL, AND DESERVEDLY SO DUDE.

MAYBE YOUR MOMMY WILL LET YOU PLAY WITH HER PC

AGAIN  BY YOUR 12th BIRTHDAY.
