First look: Virginia at Clemson odds and lines

Looking at Saturday’s Virginia at Clemson college football odds, lines and trends. Here’s what you need to know.

First look: Virginia vs. Tennessee odds and lines

Looking at Saturday’s Virginia vs. Tennessee college football odds, lines and trends. Here’s what you need to know.

[gambcom-standard rankid=”3011″ ]

The Virginia Cavaliers and the Tennessee Volunteers open the regular season on Saturday at Nissan Stadium in Nashville. Kickoff is scheduled for noon ET (ABC). Below, we look at Virginia vs. Tennessee odds from BetMGM Sportsbook. Also see: SportsbookWire’s college football picks and predictions.

The Cavaliers head to Nashville for the 1st time since playing in the Music City Bowl back on Dec. 30, 2005, a 34-31 win over Minnesota, by the way. Virginia went just 3-7 last season in coach Tony Elliott’s debut, and it had a sad ending to the season when 3 players were murdered in November by a former player.

Virginia heads into the 2023 season with a lot of new faces, including QB Tony Muskett, a transfer from FCS Monmouth. He will be tasked with getting Elliott’s pro-style, timing-based offense up and moving. The team not only has a new signal caller, but the top 4 wideouts are gone, too. Yikes.

Tennessee begins the post-Hendon Hooker era in pretty good shape with QB Joe Milton III. Wideouts Jalin Hyatt and Cedric Tillman are gone to the NFL, but there are still plenty of downfield threats available with former USC receiver Bru McCoy and Squirrel White leading the way. The Vols have 3 competent backs to shoulder the load, too.

Tennessee is No. 10 in the USA TODAY Sports AFCA Coaches Poll.

The Volunteers lead the all-time series 3-1, with the last meeting coming on Jan. 1, 1991 in the Sugar Bowl in New Orleans. The Vols won a 23-22 thriller that evening. The other 3 meetings were in Knoxville in 1927, 1940 and 1980. The latter was a 16-13 road win for the Hoos on Nov. 1, 1980, and that’s the last time these teams squared off in the Volunteer State until Saturday.

First look: Notre Dame at Virginia odds and lines

Previewing the Notre Dame Fighting Irish and Virginia Cavaliers Week 11 matchup, with college football odds, trends and head-to-head records.

The No. 7 Notre Dame Fighting Irish (8-1, Independent) meet the Virginia Cavaliers (6-3, 4-2 ACC) at Scott Stadium in Charlottesville, Va. Kickoff is scheduled for 7:30 p.m. ET. Below, we look at the Notre Dame vs. Virginia odds and lines; check back for our college football picks and predictions.

The Fighting Irish posted a 34-6 victory over rival Navy last week, covering a 21-point number as the Under connected. The Irish has won and covered four in a row since its only loss of the season Oct. 2 vs. Cincinnati.

The Cavaliers were outscored 66-49 at BYU, Oct. 30, before the bye. Virginia has scored 48 or more points in three straight games, but lost QB Brennan Armstrong due to a rib injury in the fourth quarter vs. BYU. He is a question mark for this one.

First look: Virginia at Miami odds and lines

Previewing the Virginia Cavaliers at Miami Hurricanes Week 5 matchup, with college football odds, trends and head-to-head records.

The Virginia Cavaliers (2-2, 0-2 ACC) travel to Hard Rock Stadium to face the Miami Hurricanes (2-2, 0-0) this Thursday at 7:30 p.m. ET. Below, we look at the Virginia at Miami odds and lines; check back for our college football picks and predictions.

It has been a familiar theme for Virginia through its first four games: a ton of points on both sides of the ball. QB Brennan Armstrong leads the nation with 426.3 yards per game and has 13 TDs to just 3 INTs. But for as prolific as the passing game has been, the Cavaliers defense is giving up 6.3 yards per play (worst in the ACC; 113th in the nation).

Miami crushed Central Connecticut State 69-0 in a much-needed reset last week after two brutal losses to Alabama (44-13) and Michigan State (38-17) in Weeks 1 and 3, respectively.

QB D’Eriq King missed Miami’s last game with a shoulder injury, and as of Monday, it’s unknown whether he’ll be available for this one. Backups Jake Garcia and Tyler Van Dyke split time last week and combined to throw for 417 yards and 5 TDs.
