Analysis
I am also on South Carolina, Arkansas, Mississippi State, and ML parlay Alabama/Tennessee.

This is a bet ON V-tech AND against BC, which is why I love this one.  Boston College has been in Boston since September 19th, the day they beat Duke on the road. That following week thet struggled to beat Texas Tech at home, the played North Carolina tough at home, which was UNC's first road game in these uncertain times which for the most part hasn't been kind to visiting teams. This is ON V-Tech because we're getting a bargain number based on their game at North Carolina last week. First off,  North Carolina is a very good team, but most importantly is that although Tech was down big, they fought all game. In fact. they outscored UNC 31-21 in that second half, led largely by the QB change to Herndon Hooker. So, they come in here actually on a good note as opposed to if they'd have laid down. The Tech defense has been vulnerable at times, but this is a BC offense that averages 1.9 yards per rush. This is a Tech defense that is 6th in sack percentage, and Jurkovec has been sacked 17 times, including six against a marginal Pitt and six against a marginal Duke defense. He's not going to run, so a stationary target. So if BC is going to compete they're going to have to throw the ball, hence a higher scoring game, and there's no way they have the offense to keep pace with Tech, especially over the course of 60 minutes. This is also at night in Blacksburg, and although it won't be a full stadium, it's still a challenge. I do like what Hafley has and will do at BC, but they're not ready, and Fuentes has the better players, and VT has every reason not to let up  after losing at BC last year, 35-28. This should be a rout by the time the clock strikes 0:00.
