Virginia Tech vs Duke Game Preview
Why Virginia Tech Will Win
It’s been a disastrous year for the Hokies, but they’re improving week after week – at least they’re competitive – and they’re in games.

What’s Going To Happen
Duke has been one of the season’s most pleasant surprises, and now it’s bowl eligible.
The turnovers are kept to a minimum mainly because the offense doesn’t have to press. The strong running game will keep on going with over 200 yards, and the defense will catch a break – the mediocre secondary won’t get bombed on.
