According to oddsmakers at BetDSI, Louisville is favored at home tonight, as the Cardinals are getting odds of -12.5 points against Virginia Tech. The over/under total for the game is listed at 144.5 points. Louisville has won its last two meetings with Tech, but the Hokies have covered the spread in both games.

Louisville has won two straight since a loss at Virginia. The Cardinals are 21-5 on the season and 9-4 in the ACC.

Louisville has been a really good team at home, but the Cardinals are giving up a lot of points to a Virginia Tech team that is playing really well right now. The Hokies have covered in their last two on the road and won at Pitt as a 5-point dog. I think the Hokies have enough to keep this game competitive, even with the loss of Clarke.
