Notre Dame vs Virginia Tech Predictions 2021 – 7:30 PM ET ACCN
Both of these teams seem to mirror each other. Both have weak OL’s and good defenses. VA Tech has 13 sacks in their 1st 4 games and 6 turnovers VA Tech is 3-1 and had a bye week.
Notre Dame has possibly the worst OL in College football and they are currently working on their 4th LT who is a freshman.
ND finally gets the big OL recruits, but their legs give out. Outside of their center, ND is simply atrocious and not improving. They basically have 2 All American RB’s yet they can’t gain a yard.
I’ve been ranting about Spindler not being given a shot at LG but then I hear they have him on the FG unit – so they just wasted 1 year of his eligibility.
Kelly has a way of getting in the heads of his QB’s negatively. So I don’t know who starts this week – the wooden indian or the dual threat. Nothing to lose so I would start Pyne. The kid has like a maverick attitude and that’s what we need. Kelly will start Coan.
Score Prediction: Notre Dame 28 VA Tech 20
