The Virginia Tech Hokies suffered a loss early in this college football season that hurt their chances of winning a national title.
Then, after battling back to the top of the rankings, they were shocked in the last two minutes last week against Boston College.
Now, they once again are in prime time and this time, they must beat Georgia Tech to keep their ACC title hopes alive.
Georgia Tech also started the season strongly, but has slipped of late and is in danger of falling further down the bowl depth chart.
Both of these teams were predicted high in the rankings early in the year, but as is the case with most rankings, they did not turn out to be accurate as both teams have at least two losses, although Virginia Tech only has one conference loss.
The
game will be played in Georgia, which accounts for them being favored by sportsbooks. the line on the game is Yellow Jackets -2.5.
The game will be shown on ESPN at 7:45.
