Let's break down each of these plays.
College Football pick today: Virginia Cavaliers +9.5 over Syracuse Orange (-105), 7:30 pm ET
The spread is in favor of the Syracuse Orange based on the performance of these two teams so far. Nevertheless, at some point this season, the Virginia offense will click. The Cavaliers put up heavy passing totals last week, even if they failed to score much. Likewise, Syracuse gave up over 400 yards in the air to Purdue. For that reason, backing the Cavaliers to cover looks to be worth a play.
