Virginia Tech vs Old Dominion Prediction

Virginia Tech is going to get the benefit of the doubt because of the name and the fact it’s at home, but this line makes no sense. Virginia Tech hasn’t been good dating back to last season and hasn’t shown much offensively through two games. Virginia Tech also can’t stop the run and is 117th in scoring defense. Virginia Tech just got smoked by Vanderbilt at home last week.

Old Dominion doesn’t have the athletes Virginia Tech has, but it did give a ranked Indiana team a scare opening week. Old Dominion has been able to move the ball and is top-30 in rushing, which should give a bad Virginia Tech defense something to think about. I’ll grab the free touchdown with ODU on the road.
