Virginia vs Virginia Tech Game Preview


Why Virginia Tech Will Win

The Hokies have more to play for … sort of.

This is the rivalry game that matters for both sides. Virginia Tech owned this for a long, long time before Virginia broke through a few years ago, and a coaching change and all the turmoil isn’t an excuse to lose to that team.

And Virginia Tech needs this win to go bowling.

The team hasn’t been all that awful – the offense has come through enough to get to five wins, being competitive against Notre Dame, Syracuse, Miami, and West Virginia – and the defense has held up reasonably well.

Consistency hasn’t been a given with this group, but the secondary doesn’t give up a ton of yards, the offense doesn’t give up a ton of turnovers, and …

Why Virginia Will Win

Merely being safe and careful and okay doesn’t get it done against Virginia.

The Cavalier defense doesn’t have a pass rush, it doesn’t stop the run, and it’s too easy to move the ball on this group. However, Brennan Armstrong and the passing game bomb away like mad.

Virginia Tech has to be prepared to open it up, and it’s just not equipped to do that against a quarterback and passing game that rolled for 300 yards in every game he played in but the win over Miami.

What’s Going To Happen

Oh would this be so, so sweet for Virginia.

The 2019 team beat the Hokies 39-30 to go off to play for the ACC Championship. Virginia lost 15 straight in the series before that going back to 2003, and it lost last year’s regular season finale.

Now it gets to beat its rival for the second time in three seasons and knock it out of a bowl.

The Virginia offense will get held down just enough to keep this from getting out of hand, but Virginia Tech won’t be able to keep up.

Why Virginia Will Win

Very, very, very quietly, Virginia has been on a roll. It was a brutal first part of the season, but it got on a nice run starting with the upset over North Carolina, and has kept it all going with four straight wins.

Now it’s coming off of its most complete offensive performance of the season in the 43-32 win over Boston College – the team really is getting better as the season is going on.

And then there’s Virginia Tech – who’s trending in the opposite direction.

The Hokies struggled through health issues early on, and over the last month, the offense has collapsed, the defense is struggling way too much, and there just hasn’t been the slightest bit of luck.

Playing Clemson will make anyone look bad – the Hokies weren’t awful, but they lost 45-10 last week – as a part of a rough run. The O can’t convert on fourth downs, the D is breaking as well as bending, and the secondary had struggled. Virginia QB Brennan Armstrong is coming off of a few sharp performances.

Week 15 College Schedule

Why Virginia Tech Will Win

The Hokies are still able to move the ball through all of the issues.

There are quarterback concerns after injuries – including a scary incident with Hendon Hooker last week against Clemson – and inconsistencies, and the ground game has stalled, but the passing game hasn’t been bad.

When the O is working, the ground attack is rolling. This starts with getting Khalil Herbert into open spaces and letting him rumble. It’s no coincidence that the team’s struggles kicked in when he got hurt, but now should build off the 21 carries he got last week against Clemson. However …

CFN Experts Picks: College

What’s Going To Happen

The Virginia defensive front is great at getting to the quarterback and the run D has been fantastic lately. It helps statistically to face a Boston College team that didn’t really run – along with Abilene Christian – but it was able to hold down North Carolina and only allowed over 180 yards once.

This isn’t be as good as last year’s 39-30 classic, but Virginia will pull off a second straight win in the rivalry after losing the previous 15. The Cavaliers are sharper on both sides of the ball, but it’ll be another battle.
