College Football Game Lines – Yellow Jackets Search For Consistency

A couple of ACC rivals will clash on the college football betting game lines this Saturday at Bobby Dodd Stadium in Atlanta, Georgia when the Virginia Cavaliers take on the Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets.

Neither team has been able to string together consecutive wins early this season, and are prime examples of the struggles of teams in the ACC early on.

The Cavaliers travel one week after losing by 20 to Florida State at home, the low point of a season that has Virginia with two wins and a close loss to number-16 USC on the road.

Virginia Cavaliers @ Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets

Bobby Dodd Stadium, Atlanta, Georgia

College Football Odds: Virginia, +10, Georgia Tech -10

Total: 46.5

The Yellow Jackets are in a similar situation, alternating wins and losses throughout the first five weeks of the college football season. Some find it puzzling that the same Georgia Tech team that was able to knock off North Carolina week three on the road was blown away by North Carolina State the following week, but that is the case.

The Yellow Jackets rebounded nicely from the loss to the Wolfpack to take down Wake Forest in a closely contested match up, and will look to string together two straight wins for the first time this season this week.

A tough loss to Florida State has the Cavaliers looking up in the ACC, with more question marks than answers. Quarterback Matt Verica threw for two interceptions compared to just one touchdown, while running back Perry Jones was held to only 2.5 yards per carry, Both are integral pieces of the Virginia offense, and will need to rebound in a major way to avoid suffering consecutive losses for the first time this season.

A late touchdown drive keyed the Yellow Jackets’ win over Wake Forest last weekend, as Georgia Tech outscored the Demon Deacons 18-3 in the final frame for a huge comeback win on the road.

The biggest reason for the turnaround on offense was quarterback Joshua Nesbitt, who rebounded from a tough start to throw for a season-high 130 yards and two touchdowns, ensuring not to hinder Georgia Tech with a tough turnover. Nesbitt also added 72 yards of offense on the ground, and will need to continue to improve this week to knock off Virginia.

While the Yellow Jackets have not been able to demonstrate the consistency they strive for so far this year, this will very likely be the week they do so as they welcome the equally inconsistent Cavaliers. An ACC showdown is awarded to the home team in a close contest, with Georgia Tech getting the nod to finally put two in a row together.
