RJ's take: It took 17 games for Brent Pry to get the Hokies running — just 5-12 through that stretch — but it must be said that he did in 2023. After a 1-3 start to the season, they won five of their last seven, including a 19-point win against No. 23 Tulane in the Military Bowl. He returns a bevy of experience to a team that won’t face a preseason top 25 opponent until they travel to Miami. And with games at Vanderbilt, against Marshall, at Old Dominion and against Rutgers, they could be 3-1 or even 4-0 when they face the Hurricanes.

Virginia Tech's Win Total Odds: Over 8.5 (+105) Under 8.5 (-125)
