Virginia Tech vs Navy Prediction

The Virginia Tech Hokies have underachieved up to this point, but they’re still head and shoulders the more talented side and have to take advantage of a spot like this to build confidence before ACC play. The Navy Midshipmen have not only lost 7 of their last 10 games, but they’re 3-6 ATS on the season. Navy doesn’t shoot the ball well enough to worry a team like the Hokies. I’ll lay the points with VA Tech at home.
