Virginia Tech vs. UCLA

The UCLA Bruins have shown to have a potent offense all season long, and they have used it to carry themselves to a 9-3 record on the season. Things have been quite the opposite for Frank Beamor's Virginia Tech team as they have thrived on defense. There is one thing that stands out to me here, and that is the fact that when UCLA scores 34 or more points, they are 8-0 on the season, but when they score less than 35, they are just 1-3. When you look at what the oddsmakers have posted here for a total (47), and the line is 7, they anticipate roughly a 27-20 game in favor of the Bruins. The fact that this is supposed to be a defensive game favors Virginia Tech because they are made to win that kind of game. And, UCLA is not. Under Beamer, the Hokies are 73-55 ATS vs. winning teams including 43-31 ATS vs. teams at .750 or better. Take the points with Virginia Tech.
