VT (-4) over FSU
Looking over these teams both are coming in after in state beatings against UVAQ and Florida. VT has been rolling after losing the first two games of the season. Both teams have solid offensive units and good solid talent on defense. I think VT has a little more talent in the reutrnj game and I STRESS LITTLE... FSU has the same level of talent but they commit too many penalties. I like Taylor and over the season he has really showed a lot of control over this offense. They have two solid runners and then they have #4 who in my opinion is the fastest guy on the field today. I throw this to a game where I just do not trust FSU at QB. A ton of love is given to Ponder but the guy has not made tough throws, over throws, under throws and shows problems reading coverage and then running timid. I think he will be on the hook for one or two turn overs. I also think that FSU is over blown after beating an over valued Florida team at home... which is where FSU is a better team. The okie game comes to mind when thinking about FSU in a big game on the road. Now I am not saying VT is a power on the road but they certainly have the ability to bring a ton of fans to this game 3 hours from VT. The temp is going to be colder and thats a bit of an advantage. Should be a very interesting game but I see a lot of small tilts toward VT including the play making of Taylor. When you look at FSU against NC St the scramble by the QB or the QB dive... Wilson single handed scored on all the goal situations and exposed a big weakness that I think Tyrod can use. I like all the little advantages to equal one play over the number.
Well at least thats what I see
Cheers
