is virginia tech one of those too good to be true games tonight?
 

i had a hard time figuring out why they are dogs tonight against a terrible georgia tech team

Re: is virginia tech one of those too good to be true games tonight?
 

Have you seen them play? Their offense is absolute garbage, particularly their O-line. This is why they are a dog.

Their are at least 20 thoughts on this game on this board right now, no need for a new thread.

yes, bet gt

I agree. The jackets only lose by more than 5 was to BC by 2 TDs and Matt Ryan on fire at the time. The other two loses are on the road at MD by 2 and and at Virginia by 5.

Also they've been off 12 days and VaTech is on 7 days rest.

2 units -2.5

Thanks for alerting me to this game. #11 @ an unranked team that received 0 votes, and the unranked team is favored? I'm betting GT just on principle.

Re: is virginia tech one of those too good to be true games tonight?
 

Part of me wants to think that the GT defense will take over and win, but the other part says that without Choice GT has absolutely no chance to move the ball and VT will get very short fields.

F it, I'm just gonna head out to the V now and enjoy the game tonight.

you'll have to explain the logic of this to me some time (which does not make it incorrect).

Seems like a classic trap game scenario. They (Vegas) know something we don't.

Re: is virginia tech one of those too good to be true games tonight?
 

too many respected posters taking different sides tonight

VT @ GT U40.5 (risking 1.1u to win 1u)

Re: is virginia tech one of those too good to be true games tonight?
 

here's a couple of interesting factoids: the starting vtech center is out, replaced by a redshirt freshman.

gatech blitzes an average of 32 times a game. 259 out of a total of 514 defensive plays.

talk about a baptism in fire. holy smokes.

I know, but with this week's Halloween shenanigans I've done a really poor job of keeping up with all my studying and wasn't happy enough with my last practice test to just let it ride.

I have a feeling that I'm going to seriously regret this decision too.

I know there's a very successful strategy of picking an unranked team over a ranked team if the unranked team is favored, in NCAA basketball. I'm guessing it's the same idea.

Are student tickets still as easy to get as they used to be? Man, I gotta get back up to Atlanta and see a game again.. haven't been to one since I graduated (George Godsey era).

Haha.. well it was a bit of a letdown after 3 years of watching Joe Hamilton, but Godsey was better than people thought. At least I got out before the AJ Suggs era. :P

Re: is virginia tech one of those too good to be true games tonight?
 

If I didn't think the line was well set, I'd take GT. So... there's that.

Don't know. But GT just blocks a field goal attempt with time running out in the first half and I cover a huge bet on under 20.5. Drinks for everyone [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Vegas just levelled 90% of the posters here. Trying to think out a bad line and concluding we should take the bad team, LOL.

ship the 5.85 units that i just won betting on va tech

Re: is virginia tech one of those too good to be true games tonight?
 

I'd like to thank the books for moving it back to +3 right before the game, as I wasn't playing +2.5.

Re: is virginia tech one of those too good to be true games tonight?
 

Lookslikethat 1/2 point is going to save you.. Nice hand sir.

Re: is virginia tech one of those too good to be true games tonight?
 

vatech +3 -125, for 3 units.

i was at the gatech-uva game. gatech looked terrible, and they lost a few players to injuries. the fact that vatech beat bc for 55 minutes, should make them the favorites.

Not exactly a reply. But you are on fire in all sports right now. Great Work. You arent a talker, just a doer. Youve moved to top 5 most respected posters here in my eyes.

1-0 on posted bets before kickoff, long way to go to get to ichabod status.
