2018 Football Preview – ACC – Hokies
Looking for 2018 Virginia Tech Hokies predictions? The Hokies have had some success under Justin Fuente and they have a chance to do the same thing this year but there are a ton of question marks about this team. They have lost a lot since last year and although there is still a ton of talent this season could go one of two ways.

2018 Virginia Tech Hokies Predictions: Team Strengths
Solid leader under center: There were some real questions surronding quarterback Josh Jackson and if he would be eligable, but he is and that is a huge key for this team.
He has been solid for this team last year and he is one of the more athletic quarterbacks in the conference. He at times can be innacturate but he had all offseason to work on that.
He can beat teams with his legs and his arms and don’t be surprised if he is contention towards the end of the year for player of the year in the conference.

Jackson is going to be key for how this team performs this year, but the team seems to be in good hands this year.
Strong defense: There are a lot of question marks on the defensive side but not really big enough to worry because guys always step up for the HOkies.
Bud Foster is a legendary defensive coordinator and he can always seem to get the rest of whatever talent he has on the field.
Don’t expect anything different this year, this will be one of the top defenses in the league again.
2018 Virginia Tech Hokies Predictions: Team Weaknesses
Who’s Out Wide?: Maybe a better question instead of who’s out wide is who’s going to step up outside?
seven of the top nine recievers are back from last year but their leading reciever is gone, and no one has emerged to be the top guy.

Theh should still be okay outside but they need a guy they coun’t on when they need the big catch and that guy needs to emerge early.
Weak schedule: It’s the ACC so it’s still going to be a battle most nights, but they miss Clemson and Louisville this year.
They have a huge showdown in the first weak against Florida State and if they want any hope of taking their program up a step that is a must win.
Virginia Tech Hokies Prediction: 10-2
The weak schedule is going to help them get ten wins, but I think the weak schedule is going to cost them a shot at reaching their goals.

They will make the ACC title gam and lose again. Overall it’s still going to be a nice season, but will it live up to what the fans want?
