Normally, after a team like Virginia Tech, which was favored by nearly two touchdowns last week, loses to a team like Vanderbilt outright, I would look to back them the following week. But that's not the case here. The Hokies have a lot of problems on both sides of the ball, for sure. And making them this much of a favorite with Old Dominion up next, tells me this is a mistake. Following next week’s matchup on the road, this team comes home to face Rutgers, then takes to the road to face Miami. I just don't see urgency for this team to keep their foot on the gas here. Even if they come out here with something to prove, laying nearly three touchdowns against a Marshall opponent, which has played them very competitively over the years is going to be fatal for this team. The Thundering Herd enter this match up with a little confidence, following a 45-3 shellacking over Stonybrook. Granted the Seawolves are a far cry from the Hokies, but yet this team still has some confidence coming into this week’s matchup. I understand they have the Ohio State Buckeyes on the road in their next outing. But they have an off week after this game to prepare for that contest. I think we could all agree they don’t stand a chance against the Buckeyes, but yet they still have a week to prepare. Let's go back to how competitively they play Virginia Tech. They took down the Hokies a season to go, 24-17 at home. That gave them their third cover in the last four meetings in this rivalry. I just don't see laying nearly three touchdowns with a very lackluster Virginia Tech team. Take Marshall. Thank you.
