Pick
I’m leaning towards Virginia Tech laying the points here. The Hokies haven’t been anything special away from home this season, but Notre Dame has not been a team that can be trusted for much of anything and unfortunately for the Irish, I think Mike Brey’s tenure ends here as the Hokies bag a win and cover here.
