    VT +3.5 vs NCarolina....thoughts?
    The line started are +8 but apparently a lot of people were thinking the same thing I was.....Beamers last home game and NC plays a lot better at home than on the road

    They have only played 2 real road games this year and the scores were

    38-31 over GT
    26-19 over Pitt

    I wasn't able to get the +8 but I am not sure +3.5 has the value to put any money on....I don't watch a ton of ACC football.

    Anyone have any thoughts?

    UNC can put up a lot of pts quick. My only thought is that if Va Tech gets down quick, like they did last game...their offense won't be able to dig themselves out of a large hole. Va Tech's RB is good, but their QB is terrible. Zero arm strength. Va Tech D will have to carry them.

      im not sure if 3.5 is enough, but i would expect a monumental performance by VT tomorrow. I just dont know if its enough, unc D is pretty good too. Senior day, beamer's final home game are hard to ignore tho.

        I'm on the Hokies... lot of angles favor them in this one. That doesn't guarantee anything, but it does make them bettable. I did get a nice early number of +7 with the local though. The current line would make me think twice, but the Hokies will certainly leave it all on the field tomorrow.

          Well said shark, tech should definitely play with a sense of urgency considering all the circumstances. Carolina's explosive plays could cause trouble against techs d...mobile qbs historically give us all kinds of fits

              Not buying the feel good story of Beamer's last HOME game. He talked a lot of shit after the last game and beating UNC..................UNC beats Va Tech by double digits.

                  Locker room footage after the last game. Basically UNC is good and hot but we are going to beat them on our field. He could have been drunk.

                    Looks like a win here or against NC state and they are in.

                      Watch North Carolina win by 28 now. These are the games people get burned playing the line movement.

                        I just don't see it, guys... UNC is for real. Beamer has been gone for a long time already...think he left when Michael Vick graduated

                            Line moved from -6 to -3.5

                            Public still on North Carolina at around 80%

                            So technically VT+ Points would be the play

                              UNC has a way better offense and a somewhat better defense. Expect it to be close the first half but N.C. will pull away the second half. N.C. is good because they don't turn the ball over- a big advantage!

                                      VT will show life all game for Beamer in his final home game.

                                            Agreed, it's not enough for me to bet it. But gun to head I'd take points.

                                              Books are not afraid to move the line 3 points to sucker VT money because they know if North Carolina wins it's going to be by a TD or more.

                                                        This is why you don't call it after the first quarter, much less the first drive. Gonna be a tight finish.

                                                          I'm holding a VT ticket, surprised NC has done nothing after that first drive to be honest

                                                            The thing about UNC is they look unstoppable against garbage defenses. Against Pitt and even Virginia, they looked rather average. Tech's defense, especially at home, is better than those two and was a major reason why I backed the Hokies today.
