Result: Loss
This is a 10* play on Virginia Tech.
The Buckeyes come into the 2015 season as a unanimous #1 in all the polls, and I think they are every bit as good as they are cracked up to be. They should be all fired up here in Week 1, with a chance to avenge their only loss of last season. The Hokies upset Ohio State in Columbus by a score of 35-21, and J.T. Barrett had his worst game of the season throwing three INTs. J.T. Barrett wasn't the only quarterback that struggled in last year's game, as the Buckeyes also picked off Michael Brewer twice.
That game went way over the total of 46, but we see a much higher number here in Blacksburg tonight. I think the value lies with a play on the under, as I think the defenses of both teams should dominate here in Week 1. The Hokies have seen the total go under in 14 of their last 20 games on grass, and 11 of their 13 games last season failed to reach the number that is listed here tonight.
The Buckeyes opened as a double digit favorite here, which is already a tough ask on the road in a tough environment. Now public money has pushed that number up a few points, and now they are asked to cover two TDs. Keep in mind, this team needed double overtime to get past Penn State at Happy Valley, and just barely slipped past the Gophers 31-24 in Minnesota last season. This Hokies defense is a whole different animal, and should not be taken lightly.
The OSU offense could also be slowed by the absence of suspended wide receiver Corey Smith, and injured Noah Brown. Their biggest loss though is defensive end Joey Bosa, who is serving a suspension for violating team rules.
Take VT.
