Stanford vs. Virginia Tech Prediction
Virginia Tech is the more balanced, talented team and should win comfortably. We’ve faded Stanford a lot this season, and it’s paid off, as it’s just 3-6 ATS this season. I’m still not laying double-digit chalk with Virginia Tech or James Franklin. Virginia Tech has failed to cover four of its last six games, and we can’t forget the Hokies outright lost to Cal as a double-digit favorite. Virginia Tech has failed to cover its last two games as a double-digit favorite.
Now, to be fair, there’s no real reason to get behind Stanford, so this is a game I’d leave alone personally. However, if forced to pick, I’d want the points in my pocket. Virginia Tech just doesn’t move me much. We’re getting more than two free touchdowns. Give me Stanford if I had to put money on this blah ACC showdown.
