Old Dominion had a 1.8 % chance of beating Va. Tech yesterday

[HazletonLion]

Biggest upset in 10 years, and their first victory against a power 5 team.
Those are the dangers of playing the App. States of the college world, as many have pointed out, better to play your power 5's.

It was a 2 for 1.

Dylan Rivers had a career-high nine tackles. Hopefully his girlfriend was impressed! I kid, I kid... I guess we'll hear more from him in two seasons...

It was a 2 for 1.

That would make more sense, but I though I saw somewhere it is a 7 for 6.

If true, that would be a terrible deal for VT.

But we are doomed against Ohio State with no hope in sight.
