Cold and Rain in Blacksburg tonight

[Jello]

40 degrees and steady rain. Two run oriented teams (especially GT).

I think this is going to be a ball control type of game and somewhat sloppy at that.

56 points looks really high to me. I'm going under.

I'm leaning to Virginia Tech in this game and Buffalo in the other game but haven't made a play as of yet.

Good luck with whatever you decide.

I really liked VT until I saw the weather. I actually played them at -13 early in the week. Now I'm not so sure.

I'll tell you one thing as a UVa fan, VT never had any problems with an Al Groh defense. But with the weather like it is you have to consider GT's ground game viable enough to keep it closer than might otherwise be expected. Taylor has had struggles in similarly wet conditions (see JMU).

Again, I think it's going to be a sloppy ball control type of game. The under is the best play here imo.
