VT record on September 3rd.

I got to thinking the other day about the fact that the past two seasons VT opened its schedule up on September 3rd (2016 vs Liberty, 2017 vs WVU) and will once again open it's season this year on September 3rd against FSU. A quick perusing of the hokiesports.com website revealed that since 1987 (my information cutoff date is the hiring of Coach Frank Beamer), VT is 5-1 on games played on September 3rd:

2017 vs WVU (AT FEDEX FIELD!!) W 31-24
2016 vs Liberty (Lane Stadium) W 36-13
2012 vs Georgia Tech (Lane Stadium) W 20-17 OT
2011 vs Appalachian State (Lane Stadium) W 66-13
1994 vs Arkansas State (Lane Stadium) W 34-7
1988 vs Clemson (Clemson, SC) L 40-7

VT has won 5 in a row on September 3rd. Lets make it 6 in a row and keep CJF undefeated on September 3rd!!!
