OTS:
Ah, the King of the Choke-Job versus the King of Mediocrity. Wow, what a match-up. In all honesty, neither of these two teams are particularly good, and that's plain to see. That said, the Hokies are likely the better team. They have a better defense, and will likely be able to muster more offense than the Yellow Jackets given the likely return of Tyrod Taylor and the likely absence of Tashard Choice for GT. Moreover, the Hokies know they cannot drop another conference game, so I say they pull it out.
Nico:
Nico is actually at the game, so he phoned his pick in to me. I believe his words were "I'll go with the Hokies. It's Georgia Tech...what are you gonna do?"
Todd:
I've gotta go with the Hokies on this one. Defense and special teams, people. It wins football games. Unless you choke against BC.
