Off season discussion: What three VT losses would you undo

If you could change three losses in Hokies football history to wins (excluding the 1999 BCS title), which three would they be?

Inspired by (and by inspired by, I really mean plagiarized from) this TSL Tweet.

I decided to pick three games based purely on hindsight - my three in no order:

  • @Miami in 2000 - back to back undefeated regular seasons/title appearances would be super impressive.
  • LSU 2007 - probably gets us back to the natty, might prevent/delay the emergence of the obnoxious 'SEC fan'
  • Stanford 2010 - I know Boise and JMU might have been the obvious choices that year, but I think if we beat Stanford, we get classified as a top 5-10 team who had one really tough game, followed by one flukey loss after a short week. Instead, we got blown out and physically dominated.
