The No. 8 Virginia Tech Hokies can’t officially clinch a spot in the ACC
Championship Game opposite Clemson with a home win over North Carolina on
Thursday night, but Virginia Tech could officially earn that spot if Virginia,
as expected, loses on Saturday at Florida State. The Hokies opened as 11-point
favorites on Bodog’s NCAA football odds and live betting is available for the
ESPN telecast. Get all your college football odds at Bodog’s online
sportsbook. Virginia Tech (9-1, 5-1 ACC) truly put itself in the driver’s seat in the
Coastal Division with last Thursday’s 37-26 win at Georgia Tech, the Hokies’
fifth win in a row since their lone loss of the season, to Clemson. QB
Logan Thomas accounted for five touchdowns for the second time
this season and RB David Wilson, who might be the ACC Player of
the Year, had his seventh straight 100-yard game with a career-high 175 yards on
23 carries. Virginia Tech leads Virginia by a game in the Coastal and the two
teams close the regular season against each other. So if Virginia Tech loses
this week regardless of what Virginia does, then next Saturday’s game will be
for the Coastal Division. North Carolina (6-4, 2-4) has been struggling, losing three of four. The
Heels have been off since Nov. 5 when they were beaten 13-0 by rival NC State.
UNC was held to a total of 3 yards rushing, although freshman RB Giovani
Bernard became the first North Carolina player since 1997 to reach
1,000 yards rushing in a season. Heels starting QB Bryn Renner
was knocked out of that game with a concussion but he has recovered and
will start this one. Renner leads the ACC and is No. 8 nationally in passing
efficiency. He has completed 71.4 percent of his passes for 2,271 yards and 19
touchdowns (four shy of tying school record) with 11 interceptions. Virginia Tech leads this series 6-1 since joining the ACC, but the last time
the teams played in Blacksburg, which was also on a Thursday night, UNC pulled
off a 20-17 upset in 2009. Hokies are 0-4 ATS in their past four games. Road
team has covered in past five meetings in this series. Bet on college football at Bodog: HOME OF INTENSE COLLEGE RIVALRIES
