Fans who bet the college football line
and were looking for a game that meant
everything have got it this weekend, as
Boise State, which went undefeated last
year, is the favorite over Virginia Tech
in an early showdown that will be
televised on ESPN on Monday night at 8
PM ET from FedEx Field in Landover, MD,
home of the Washington Redskins. On the
college football line, the Broncos are
laying a point and a half to the Hokies
(the total is 50), and if Boise State
wins it, they might have an inside track
to get to the BCS title game.
Boise State Broncos vs.
Virginia Tech Hokies
College Football Line: Wow, imagine this - you've got a top
20 team from a BCS conference, getting
points at home in the college football
line from a team in a non-BCS
conference. That sounds appetizing,
doesn't it? Well, it kind of makes sense
when you consider that the road team in
this matchup is Boise State, which has
won 49 of its 53 games since
Chris Petersen took over as head
coach of the program. Boise State
completed another unbeaten season last
year when they beat TCU in the Fiesta
Bowl, and they have nearly the entire
cast back from that squad. Ten starters return on both offense
and defense, and that includes
quarterback Kellen Moore, who threw for
3536 yards and 39 TD's with only THREE
interceptions. This team ran for 5.1
yards a carry, and Jeremy Avery
scampered for 1151 yards. Senior wide
receivers Austin Pettis and Titus Young
combined for 1896 yards and 34
touchdowns. The stop unit held Oregon to
eight points and 152 yards, and TCU
scored just ten points on 317 yards
against the Broncos. Boise State has
suffered just one regular season loss
since September of 2007. And believe me
- no one has taken them for granted for
a long time. Here are some of the trends as they
impact our football betting prediction
on this game: Virginia Tech's strength comes from
its ground attack, which is fortified.
The Hokies, who are +1800 in the college
football line to win the national
championship, are not only bringing back
the sensational Ryan Williams, who had
1655 rushing yards as a freshman, they
are also welcoming back Darren Evans,
who ran for 1265 yards in HIS freshman
season, then sat out last year with a
torn ACL. Then you can add to that the
talents of Tyrod Taylor, the quarterback
who ran for 370 yards. The question is
whether Taylor, who threw for 2311 yards
and 13 TD's last season, can strike
enough balance to force defenses to play
him honestly. Boise State will test him,
you can be assured. Do you want to get a 60% bonus on
