Randy’s Free Pick

Virginia Tech are getting the edge because it’s at home and that offense really explodes in these spots. However, Pitt is a proven, battle tested good team that’s hard to turn down in the underdog role. Pitt wins on the road by an average of 7.9 points and is 9-0 ATS on the road as well. Pitt is 9-2-1 ATS as an underdog. Give me the points.
