Let\u2019s see which team takes the win on this Panthers at Hokies betting pick.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Entering their clash this week, the Pittsburgh Panthers and Virginia Tech Hokies<\/a> are both 1-0 in ACC<\/a> play. And with the conference being wide open this year due to Clemson’s struggles, this matchup could have an impact that reaches far beyond the result of this one game.<\/p>\n\n\n\n While Virginia Tech’s home-field advantage is well documented, Pitt’s offense will look to render it irrelevant for this week.<\/p>\n\n\n\n In five games this college football season, the Pittsburgh Panthers<\/a> have put up at least 41 points in every single one of them. Their last game was a 52-21 win on the road at Georgia Tech, which was two weeks ago, giving Pitt ample time to prepare for this contest in Blacksburg. Pitt is 2-0 on the road so far this season, but they have yet to face an opponent on the road in an atmosphere like the one Virginia Tech creates.<\/p>\n\n\n\n For the Panthers, the play of Kenny Pickett will determine how things go in this contest, as is normally the case when the Pittsburgh Panthers take the field. Pickett has been incredible this season, throwing 19 touchdown passes and just one interception through the first five weeks of the year. Virginia Tech forced several interceptions from North Carolina’s Sam Howell<\/a>, who is expected to be a high draft pick, and Pickett will need to avoid a similar fate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Virginia Tech lost last week, coming out of their bye week with a three-point home loss to Notre Dame. In that 32-29 loss, the Hokies had their chances to get ahead of Notre Dame<\/a> and stay there but could not take advantage of their chances. This week, Virginia Tech will need another standout performance from their defense if they want to generate more opportunities to collect a significant win.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Through five games, Virginia Tech has scored under 25 points per game, which isn’t likely to be enough to beat Pitt. But they allow 18.6 points per game, which they would hope to come close to replicating to slow down the Panthers. If they can do that, the Hokies could come through as five-point underdogs and potentially win this game outright.<\/p>\n\n\n\n When looking at this game, it is always tempting to back the Hokies in a game where they are at home in front of their home crowd. But the disparity in offensive ability between these teams may be too much for the Hokies to overcome. Pittsburgh is likely to have their streak of five straight games scoring 41 or more points snapped, but they will continue to put points on the board and force Virginia Tech to play catch up.<\/p>\n\n\n\n This could change if Virginia Tech is able to force turnovers. However, that has been difficult to achieve against Pickett and Pittsburgh. Expect the Panthers to hold onto the football in this contest and to do just enough to come away with the win to move to 2-0 in conference competition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n If you want to know more about these NCAAF teams stats<\/a> and picks like this Pittsburgh Panthers at Virginia Tech Hokies betting picks keep up on Insiders Betting Digest<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Let\u2019s see which team takes the win on this Panthers at Hokies betting pick.
