Virginia Tech looks to use home field advantage to get an important conference win Thursday against the Eagles.

Boston College brings a 6-1 overall mark (3-1 in the conference) into this game vs. a Virginia Tech team carrying a 7-0 record.

The roadies are big underdogs here, getting 13 on the betting line. The Hokies sport a 6-1 ATS record, while the Eagles are 4-3.

Last time out, the Eagles defeated the Demon Deacons 35-30 as 13-point favorites.

Frank Beamer's troops were at Maryland against the Terrapins last game and came away with a 28-9 win. Oddsmakers had them as 10-point favorites in that game.

VaTech has run up the score, but mostly against weak opponents.

I really would like someone to knock off the hokies, but I just don't think it will be BC.
They have been doing well, but not that well. They have squeaked by "powerhouses" like duke and wake forest.

I think VaTech will roll on this one, unless something goes terribly wrong.

Did I mention I shot the starting QB, RB and WR?

I took BC.....I don't necessarily think they're going to win, but I just can't bet that they'll lose by 15 points or more. I think VT is the better team, but so far, I am not overly impressed with them other than Marcus Vick and I really don't think they're the 3rd best team in the nation.

I took BC. I think they have a great O line and will control the clock.

Had to go the max on VT, just because slat1 bet on BC. No just kidding. Game is in VT and they need to run this score up for BCS points.
