College Football Week 4 Odds, Picks & Prediction
West Virginia vs. Virginia Tech
West Virginia will the road this week and head south to Blacksburg, as they look to pull back to .500 after a rocky start to the season. For the home Hokies, a third straight home game will be a welcomed advantage after losing their opening game to Old Dominion.
Following that loss in which he threw four interceptions, Marshall Transfer Grant Wells has played well for Virginia Tech, throwing three touchdowns and no interceptions in the time since.
For the Mountaineers, an opening week loss to Pittsburgh was followed by another shootout loss to Kansas, as they needed FCS foes, Towson, to get their first win last weekend. While WVU might have some advantages on paper, going to Blacksburg on a Thursday night is difficult for any team, especially one that has yet to prove much this season.
Look for Wells and running back Jalen Holston to have big games, as the Hokies win a close game.

Coastal Carolina vs. Georgia State
I’m sorry. I know we’re now 0-2-1 betting on Georgia State. And I know the Panthers lost straight up to Charlotte as 20-point favorites. And if you want to just skip this pick and move on, I get it.
But isn’t it just a little fishy that the 0-3 Panthers are getting less than a field goal against the undefeated Chants? There are a couple of reasons why.
Despite its unblemished record, Coastal Carolina isn’t as strong of a team as it was last season. NFL quarterback prospect Grayson McCall is back under center. But only three other starters returned on offense, with just a trio returning on the other side of the ball too.
I’m giving quarterback Darren Grainger one last chance against a Chanticleers defense that’s given up 289.3 passing yards per game to Army, Gardner-Webb and Buffalo.
Georgia State started last year 1-4 before winning six of seven down the stretch. I hope they’ll turn the corner a little earlier than last year. I’m also willing to believe there’s a reason why this spread is suspiciously short. Let’s try it again!
