Make no mistake about it, now that we got the Boise St./Oregon game out of the way, Virginia Tech vs. Alabama betting odds are the main focus coming into this weekend for College Football gamblers. 60 percent or more of the betting public is on the Alabama Crimson Tide to cover a -6 ½ line that can be found at Sports Interaction.com. For anyone looking to bet on Virginia Tech, BetUS.com was pretty much the only online sportsbook offering V Tech at +7.
There is really no head-to-head history between these two teams unless you want to go all the way back to 1998, which we at Gambling911.com see no sense in doing.
Here are some important betting trends surrounding Virginia Tech vs. Alabama:
Hokies are 7-1 ATS in their last 8 games as an underdog of 3.5-10.0.
Hokies are 10-3 ATS in their last 13 games as an underdog.
They are, however, only 2-8 ATS in their last 10 non-conference games.
There are not a whole lot of stand out trends involving Alabama pertaining to this game.
"Make no mistake about it, this is the game of the week," says Don Shapiro of Gambling911.com.
Alabama is a great team, but Virginia Tech can win this game, and that being said, a cover is quite possible.
When it comes to defense, Alabama's front seven is perhaps the best out there.
Virginia Tech:
"With Darren Evans out, the good news is Alabama doesn't know what we're going to do on offense. The bad news is neither do we."
