    Why is Virginia -7.5 over V. Tech?
    To me, this line should be more like 3.5 or 4. I'm taking the points and a small play on V. Tech to win straight up at +290. Virginia is 233rd in the nation in scoring. Their only impressive win IMO has come over Michigan. They have been impressive as of late, crushing Georgia Tech. by over 30 points and barely lost to Duke at Cameron Indoor, but I see this Rivalry game being very close. In fact, I like V. Tech to get their first ACC win tonight. Thoughts?

    I'm not sure why people like tech here? Virginia is 4-1 ats against them. Vtech just lost to Boston college, wake, unc, and Florida state. Virginia plays great defense and just rolled gtech and almost beat duke. Tech is 6-8 ats while Virginia is 9-3. The rivalry may keep it close though but I don't see a case for tech beyond that

          Nothing much to like in Tech here. I'll take the good defensive team at home over one who cant play on the road.

          I don't think you're in the know on this one sorry bruv.

            If you're puzzled by the line and think you have an easy winner, you're probably holding a loser....

                  I see your facts, but nothing you have said tells me UVA is likely to win by double digits. There's a reason Virginia is 15-2 and only ranked 17th in the nation.

                    Virginia Tech is my POD. Hopefully they show up in the second half today unlike against UNC the other day.

                      It's more of a knock on tech than a positive on Virginia. If viriginia makes their shots in the 2h they may cover. I'm not taking them though.

                                        Im back to eat crow. The line did seem a bit big but I thought that it was pretty close seeing as how UVA plays defense and that they were at home.

                                        Good call mate.
