💰 Best Virginia Tech vs. South Carolina SGP bets

Here are my favorite Virginia Tech vs. South Carolina parlay picks for Week 1 based on the best college football odds for the full parlay.

🚀 South Carolina -7.5 (-104) ⭐⭐⭐⭐

Virginia Tech finished 6-7 against the spread in 2024, while South Carolina was one of the more effective teams for sports bettors with a 9-4 ATS record last year. Gamecocks QB LaNorris Sellers is one of the top returning quarterbacks in the nation.

The Gamecocks also come off a season with a top-20 defense while adding the 15th-ranked transfer class per 247Sports. On paper, Virginia Tech is inferior in every regard. We look for the Gamecocks to continue the momentum they carried to the end of last season in a comfortable win to assert themselves in the College Football Playoff Bracket conversation in 2025.

🚀 LaNorris Sellers Over 222.5 passing yards (-114) ⭐⭐⭐⭐

Although he took until his fifth game to clear a 222.5-yard passing mark in 2024, LaNorris Sellers achieved it against Alabama before going on to finish the season by exceeding this mark in five of his final six contests.

Virginia Tech ranked 56th in the nation in pass defense a year ago, allowing 215.9 yards per game through the air. The Hokies were decimated by the portal in their secondary, so we project a gradual ramp-up period to get this unit into shape. It doesn’t happen in Week 1 against the dynamic Sellers.

Our Mike Spector also backs this pick with his Virginia Tech vs. South Carolina player prop bets.

Kyron Drones Under 186.5 passing yards (-114) ⭐⭐⭐⭐

Kyron Drones brings plenty of college football experience into this matchup, but he’s never been much of a volume passer. He averaged just 173.5 passing yards per game in 2024, clearing a 186.5-yard mark through the air only three times.

South Carolina’s defense ranked 39th against the pass in FBS last season. South Carolina defensive backs coach Torrian Gray is a former Hokie DB, and should have his unit ready to limit Drones through the air.

❓College football parlay betting FAQs

What is a parlay bet in college football?

A parlay combines multiple bets (spreads, totals, props, or moneylines) into one wager, with all selections needing to win for the bet to cash. Parlays are popular in college football betting because they offer bigger payouts.

How do college football parlay odds work?

Parlay odds are calculated by multiplying the odds of each individual selection, which increases both the potential payout and the risk. The more legs you add, the higher the reward but the lower the probability of winning.

Are parlays a smart betting strategy for college football?

Parlays can be fun for chasing large payouts but are harder to win consistently. Many sharp bettors prefer single-game wagers, but college football parlay bets can add excitement when used responsibly.
