I appreciate this professional forum more and more every day.
I thought I would do a little research and share the info.
Do what you want with it.
I had mucho dinero wins with VT at home over the years, especially at night. They stung me big time at BC and Vs Pitt.
I like them over WV but only in the 1st half -3.5 or 4 right now.
Starting with the bc game here is how they fared in 1st half vs 2nd. Straight up no lines involved
Opponent - 1st half margin - 2nd half margin
BC W 7 / L 2
Rutger W 21 / Tie
Temple W 10 / Tie
Pitt W 7 / L 14
Syracuse W 2 / lost big time
Get the picture. Their "strong " defense seems to do well in the 1st half. Stacking the line, blitzes etc. But they are just not as good as years past, they always had questionable seconday but when you had bad ass MOFOs like Corey Moore getting to the QBS
it helped.
I suspect that all the early emotions and atmosphere will carry them for the 1st half but I can see Cobourne busting a big one like Miree of Pitt in 2h to piss me off.
Ill still bet 1/2 unit for the game for old times sakes
But I will bet 2 units for 1h. Can get 3.5 now but Ill wait. Will it drop to 3?, probably not , but I dont think it goes up.
Good luck
One day I will figure out how to post attactively and line everything up.
