From the booth
The model favored VT to win, and the call landed.
Virginia Tech's got a slight edge here at 54 percent, and the numbers tell you why. The Hokies are favored by three points in Vegas, and that betting market is backing them up across the board. Maryland's been a touch inconsistent down the stretch, which gives Virginia Tech the lean in a matchup that's really competitive on paper. But hey, that's why we play the games, because this one's nearly a toss-up in College Park.
