Virginia vs Georgia Tech Prediction

I’m not excited to lay points with a Virginia team that’s lost seven of its last 10 games, but Georgia Tech isn’t lighting the world on fire themselves. Georgia Tech is also 1-6 SU on the road this season and hasn’t beat Virginia since January 2016. Star Wars: The Force Awakens was in theaters the last time Georgia Tech beat Virginia. The Virginia Cavaliers have seen eight of their 11 wins come at home, and they’re fresh off an upset win over Pitt as double-digit underdogs. Wins like that can do wonders for the confidence moving forward. I’ll lay the bucket with Virginia at home.
