Summary
Virginia Tech and Virginia are locked in a fierce rivalry battle this season, even without ACC title stakes — both teams are hungry for long-term conference dominance. Virginia sticks with coach Tony Elliott after an 11-win campaign, while Virginia Tech shocks the scene by hiring James Franklin to rebuild after a dismal 3-win season. Veteran writer David Teel gives Virginia the slight edge, ranking them fifth and Virginia Tech seventh, citing their veteran offensive line and last year’s win over the Hokies. But both teams face QB uncertainty — Virginia’s Beau Pribula (Franklin’s former QB) brings dual-threat potential, while Virginia Tech’s Ethan Grunkemeyer is a traditional passer. Teel sees Virginia aiming for 8 wins as a success, while Virginia Tech’s goal? Just 7 wins — enough to hit bowl eligibility under Franklin’s proven track record.
