First, Tyrod Taylor has been so efficient with the football at home. He hasn't thrown an INT in any home game. Turnovers would be the only way that the Heels could keep this close. Tech is averaging 32.2 ppg against the fourth toughest schedule in college football.
UNC has a good defense, but we saw them fold up and puke in the 2H against FSU AT HOME. As they seek to contain Tyrod Taylor's ground and air attack (one of the best scramblers in D1 in my opinion), they are going WEAR OUT!
UNC QB Yates has had a horrible year, throwing more INTs than TDs this year, and I look for Tech to destroy him tonight with blitzkrieg action and a couple of picks as UNC seeks to keep up with Tech's scores.
Last year's game was close, but don't be fooled. UNC has NO RECEIVING CORPS this year, their only receiver worth a damn is a possession receiver (Little). They have no long-range threat or worthwhile ground game. Both of UNC's TE's are out for this game. Couple this with the fact that last year's game was in Chapel Hill, this year's game is inside an opponent's worst hell: Blacksburg under lights in primetime!
Tech rolls here, like they did against Miami and Boston College. UNC does not have the defense of a Nebraska to keep this close. Blowout.
Tech 7-2 ATS in their last Nine vs a team with a winning record. By the way, I'm going for my fifth win in a row with this game.
Virginia Tech 30
UNC 10
