Virginia Tech Hokies College Football Betting
The 2022 season for the Virginia Tech Hokies was nothing short of a huge disappointment. The Hokies won just three games during the season and finished 3-8 SU and 4-7 ATS, with three games going over the total and eight going under. Virginia Tech won just one game in the ACC conference all season and finished in a tie for last place in the Coastal Division with Virginia, as they went 1-6 in conference play. The Hokies didn’t even get a chance to play their regular season finale, as the game vs. Virginia was cancelled. That may have been the best thing for a Virginia Tech team that struggled on both sides of the ball. The Hokies were pathetic on offense, as they averaged under 20 points per game in 2022. For bettors, the one thing that proved to be the most profitable was to bet Virginia Tech games under the total, as they went under in eight of their 11 games.
Virginia Tech averaged only 19.3 points per game and that was 118th in the country. They are averaging 315.1 yards per game. The Hokies gave up 24.7 points per game and allowed 370.8 yards per contest. Keshawn King led the team with 443 yards rushing; Grant Wells threw for 2,171 yards, while Kaleb Smith had 674 receiving yards. TyJuan Garbutt led the team with 6.5 sacks.

Virginia Tech Hokies Weekly Recap
The Hokies did not play their regular season finale against Virginia, as the game was cancelled due to the death of Virginia players a couple of weeks before the scheduled game against the Cavaliers.
The Hokies ended a seven-game losing streak by winning 23-22 at Liberty in their last game of the season. The running attack of the Hokies had 176 yards and enabled them to eat up more than 36 minutes of time. Jalen Holston, who gained 99 yards and three touchdowns on 26 attempts, was the backbone of the running game. Keshawn King contributed 78 yards.
Johnathan Bennett and Kaidon Salter, two quarterbacks for the Flames, were used. Starting the game, Bennett completed 8 of 15 attempts for 98 yards while Salter completed 12 of 18 for 119 yards. Bennett scored on a 15-yard run to tie the game late in the first quarter.
Three lead changes occurred during the game. Virginia Tech scored first on a two-yard dive by Holston, and after Holston scored again and John Love made a field goal in the second quarter, Virginia Tech increased its advantage to 17-7.
Shedro Louis of the Flames returned the kickoff 97 yards to narrow the Hokies' lead to 17-14 after Love's field goal. Nick Brown's 47-yard field goal just before the break tied the game. Kendy Charles' sack of Grant Wells in the end zone Liberty a safety and a two-point lead. A second Brown field goal gave Liberty a 22-17 lead.
A Salter turnover led to a 13-play, 64-yard drive by Virginia Tech that resulted in Holston's third score of the game, giving the Hokies a slim lead. Virginia Tech's two-point attempt was unsuccessful, but on Liberty's subsequent possessions they turned the ball over on downs and had a fumble. Virginia Tech did not turn the ball over while converting all three of its fourth downs.
Liberty and Virginia Tech wore UVA colors in honor of the three University of Virginia athletes who died last weekend. The Hokies wore orange, while the Flames wore navy.
