Triple option = easy stop for Beamer.

JT OZ · 09-02-12, 12:22 AM

Johnson? Logan Thomas is the QB for VT and yes he is quite good.

Mac4Lyfe · 09-02-12, 12:32 AM

I'm leaning VaTech as well. Beamer will have plenty of time to prepare for GaTech's offense. VaTech's defense will be very good but I'm not too sure on the offense. I'm leaning Under for the game and also GaTech Under. Receivers on both sides are pretty green but I do like Thomas at the helm.

Thank you guys for the input and what you expressed in your posts is my sentiments exactly. I just do not see Georgia Tech stopping Thomas, and as a couple of you pointed out, they have had quite a lot of time to come up with a game plan to stop the triple option. I wanted to wait to pull the trigger to get more input, but I was afraid the line would move to 7.5, as it did in several locations in Las Vegas, so I went ahead and took the play at 7. Really need it as I had the worse weekend of my long college football betting career. Got knocked down hard, but not out, so it is time to rebound.

Anyone can make a comment like you just did, but please provide us with an explanation of why you feel they are over-rated, and why you feel Georgia Tech will win the game. When I posted the thread, I was looking for quality postings, not just a random post with no merit behind it.

I like the look of VT because I know how GT played towards the end of the year. I know they have a great rush game but I'm pretty sure that has been figured out by now.

Always beware of ACC ball, they are so wishywashy with the spreads. VT and FSU have been known to be the exceptions though so I may go VT as well in this one. Good luck.

Counterfeit Cash · 09-02-12, 11:45 AM

Take the -7 while it's still available, this line is gonna move up something fierce come Monday. I think it will move at least 2-2.5 points...

I took -7 yesterday and I'm not looking back.

The u49 should be a good play as well to at least break even.

BOL

Urbanwildlife · 09-02-12, 12:17 PM

Totally agree Counterfeit Cash as I pointed out in one of my posts above, as the Vegas line is mostly 7.5 right now.

eeezzzz · 09-02-12, 12:24 PM

Smutbucket · 09-02-12, 01:46 PM

lines already on the move....8.5 at my book.....

play it safe.....Georgia Tech Team Total under 21 is the way to go

LolsMcwinsey · 09-02-12, 03:04 PM

Loveeeeeee the under

Coach Jake · 09-02-12, 07:16 PM

Playing Vtech and the under, Vtech's D will be unstoppable if they can stop the big plays an they've had good looks vs G tech lately. I never bet very much on the virginia tech Chokies though, lolol

CapperGuy · 09-02-12, 07:42 PM

Playing @ Lane stadium is no easy task, especially in a game opener with essentially everything on the line as far as bowl implications are concerned. With that being said, VTech has a lot of question marks on the offensive side of the ball with a questionable rb and targets for Logan Thomas. Will these kids playing their first game under the lights on primetime overcome the pressure? The Oline is questionable as well and Logan will be pressured all night and be forced to make plays happen with his new targets. One thing I do love about VTech is their recruiting and scouts are insanely notorious for snatching up great players to mesh well with Beamer's style. I am not worried about GTech to exploit the Vtech defense, there's a long shot with that happening especially with Sims struggling with a shin injury the entire off season, not really getting much reps. GL on your play, VTech are at home and it's very difficult to come in there and take a W with Beamer as head coach and a tough Defensive core in the Hokies. I will continue to do more research on the new recruits and starters on the offensive side of the ball for Vtech and might pull the trigger on them as well if I feel comfortable. But experience is huge in these type of matches, there's a reason this game was picked to be on primetime Labor Day.

Fantastic post CapperGuy and very appreciated. It is exactly what I was hoping to hear with my posting of the thread. Best of luck to you, and I hope you are able to take many strolls to the pay window!

Are you kidding 2pts?? These are 2 big time let down teams esspecially early season. If this moves 2pts take g.t all day

silver39 · 09-02-12, 10:06 PM

For me I like GT +7 1/2 and the under in this one...

VT O line is pretty much brand new 1 returning starter they may make it rough for Thomas to get going out of the gate especially with no David Wilson...GT on the other hand returns 8 Offensive starters including QB and 2 RBs who carried most of load in run 1st offense.

Both teams return 7-8 starters from the D (VT had a very good D last year) I think GT D will be able to get to Thomas better this year and control him. I feel VT will slow down the run better this as well.

Kind of like a GT upset but going 23-17 VT

ebelisle22 · 09-02-12, 10:11 PM

ya im on vtech for 10u

Mike Huntertz · 09-03-12, 12:02 AM

No one think an over is in the cards?

shooms79 · 09-03-12, 01:54 AM

Two factors that i can think of, 1 VT had a long time to watch film and prep for this. If you get that much time, i think its beneficial, esp for an exp squad. 2) its the first game, and i think GT may be a little rust.

bb_skoots · 09-03-12, 08:37 AM

ACC is too unpredictable for me. There are 50 other games to bet every week.

Easy-Rider 66 · 09-03-12, 09:17 AM

Urban- VT may win big but it looks like you are chasing after a bad week. VT breaking in a new O-line/running backs and GT is a dangerous team. I am taking the 7.5, but do not feel that strongly about the game. GL.

eatdarich · 09-03-12, 09:34 AM

Over 48 at Bovada might be the bees knees.lol

You didn't even give the right name of the team's QB you like, you idiot.
