Virginia Tech Aims Drones at Vanderbilt
Virginia Tech only went 7-6 last season but they did manage to finish ahead of Clemson in the ACC standings by having a better conference record than the Tigers. The Hokies averaged just under 30 points per game for the season and they had a great rushing attack that was spearheaded by quarterback Kyron Drones. This year, Drones and the Hokies have a great chance to start their season with a win as they take on one of the worst power conference teams in Vanderbilt.
Drones threw for 1,993 yards last season and rushed for another 642, making him one of the better dual-threat quarterbacks in all of college football. He also did a great job of avoiding turnovers, throwing just three interceptions a season ago. As long as he continues to avoid mistakes in this contest he should be able to lead his team to a Week 1 win in Nashville.
Can Vanderbilt Take Advantage Of Fresh Start?
Last season was a nightmare for the Vanderbilt Commodores. They went 2-10 overall and were the only team in the SEC not to win a game during conference play. Here, Vandy will look for a win that would provide some much-needed confidence going into the rest of their season with an exciting transfer leading their offense.
Diego Pavia was very good last season at New Mexico State, throwing for nearly 3,000 yards and racking up 26 passing touchdowns. He also rushed for 851 yards last season, as he is very good at improvising and extending plays with his legs. Vanderbilt needs a spark this year and it could be Pavia who brings it to them despite their other roster limitations.
Virginia Tech vs Vanderbilt Best Bet
This is a game that Virginia Tech should win without too many problems. But we are going to take the points with Vanderbilt in this matchup. Pavia is a delight to watch, as those who were willing to watch as much New Mexico State football as we were can confirm. He will keep his team in this contest even if the Hokies eventually come away with the victory.
