Does Vegas know something we don't?
Cause otherwise I think I am getting a new car after this weekend?
BC <> Duke football
Duke was a 16.5 point dog at home against Virginia Tech last weekend …
BC is a 13.5 point dog on the road in Blacksburg.
The point spread difference is only 6 (with the home team’s each getting 3). I don’t know what is going on here …
The only thing I can think of:
- Albright’s injury
- Lack of BC defense pressure on Taylor will have him running all over BC
- ??
My only guess
Is that since the Miami beating (which was thorough and complete) at Lane was still fresh and people were busy hopping back on the Miami wagon….
Added in the fact that the last time BC played a road game vs. a loud, intimidating crowd, things didn’t go so well….
True, BC has lost 4 of their last 6 away from Alumni Stadium ...
Including the ACCCG and the Bowl, but we have had Virginia Tech’s number the last 3 regular season matchups.
