Andrew Doughty and Chase Kiddy wonder why Virginia Tech is playing a road game vs. Old Dominion. Why do teams voluntarily schedule low-reward road games?

In the Big 12, is West Virginia that good or does Kansas State suck? Where do the Mountaineers fit into the conference race and playoff picture? Also, when do we take Kentucky seriously? It's only Week 5 but their schedule is extremely favorable for playoff flirtation.
