North Carolina vs Virginia Tech College Football Odds, College Football Picks & College Football Predictions: ACC rivals North Carolina and Virginia Tech will meet tonight at Lane Stadium in Blacksburg, Virginia. The Hokies, which are currently second in the Coastal division, need a win to keep pace with Georgia Tech while the Tar Heels just need a conference win. Kickoff is set for 7:30pm ET on ESPN. College Football Odds at Sportsbetting.com have the Hokies listed as a -16 against the spread home favorite.

North Carolina lost for the third time in its last four games last Thursday, falling at home to Florida State 27-30. The Tar Heels led 24-6 early in the third quarter but their top ranked pass defense did anything but control the Seminoles in the second half. Quarterback Christian Ponder completed 33-of-40 passes for 395 yards and three touchdowns against the unit, including a 98 yard scoring strike to Rod Owens in the third frame. FSU finished the night with 438 total yards and 20 first downs, which allowed them to overcome 16 penalties for 121 yards. 

The Tar Heels did not have the firepower to strike back once they fell behind and they finished the game with a mediocre 333 total yards. Signal caller T.J. Yates completed just 12-of-25 passes for 95 yards, a touchdown and an interception in the tough loss. Butch Davis' squad, which at one time was ranked as high as No. 21, is now 4-3 overall and 0-3 in ACC action (last place in the Coastal division).

Virginia Tech fell to 5-2 on October 17th, losing 23-28 to Georgia Tech in Atlanta. The defeat was the first in conference play for the Hokies, which now stand at 3-1 in ACC play. 

Tech could do nothing to slow down the Yellow Jackets rushing attack, which racked up 309 yards and four touchdowns. The Hokies defense also had trouble getting Georgia Tech off the field on third down as Paul Johnson's troops converted 8-of-14 third downs against them. The edge the Yellow Jackets gained in those two areas led to a decisive 38:22 to 21:38 time of possession advantage.

Virginia Tech's offense did farely well in the short amount of time that it had the ball, amassing 334 yards, 175 of which came on the ground. Running back Ryan Williams continued his spectacular freshman season, carrying the 14 times for 100 yards. It was Williams fifth 100 plus yard game of the year and he enters tonight's game with UNC with 834 rush yards (6.0 ypc) and 10 rushing touchdowns. 

College Football Odds Betting Trend: Virginia Tech is 7-3 against the spread and 9-1 straight up in their last 10 games as a home favorite with a spread between 14 and 17.5.
