I love the SEC Shorts videos, they kill me. I knew the end of that one had to be Klempson dominating USCe for a decade and rolling into the playoffs every year. At least VT is located in a beautiful stretch of the Appalachians, rather than dumpy old Columbia. And we had the golden years from 1995 to 2012 where we felt like a perennial top 20 team with some glorious moments in the top 10. Nowadays, not so much, but there's always next year, right USCe fans?

Columbia is such a shithole. Worst college town I've ever visited.

Yeah lived there for 2 years....even a lot of the people that live there recognize how awful it is.

(add if applicable) /s

I've only spent one night in Columbia, and my car was broken into.

Deposit whiskey, receive wisdom.

Maryland has it beat.

One of the drunkest nights of my life was in Columbia. It is indeed a hole. But I had a good time

You will see this game, this upset and this sign next on ESPN Sportscenter. Virginia Tech 31 Miami 7

His decision was made after a phone call with longtime Virginia Tech assistant coach Bud Foster. All Foster told him was, "We win. They don't."

Seems to me you could go right ahead and substitute Virginia Tech for South Carolina in that script.

I mean, didn't we play in the last Belk Bowl ever? Did ya SEE the backup QB for ODU in 2018? Guy had the game of his life. How about that time we beat #8 Ohio State in the shoe, and then lost to East Carolina?

Last Saturday morning an Alabama fan was walking by my house when I was hanging my VT flag up for game day - a ritual at my house. He said "Who y'all playing today" "Wake Forest" I said. He said, "Well, you shouldn't have any problem there". I laughed nervously.

I've LIVED that Halloween party. I live that Halloween party. I AM Virginia Tech.

I AMWE ARE Virginia Tech

FTFY

"sometimes we beat a top 20 team, just to follow it up with a blow out loss where the opposing team's freshman qb looks like Patrick mahomes.."

Hmm...

I feel attacked.

Yikes.....Only part that doesn't make this a horror story for me as a VT fan is that loluva hasn't become a Clemson yet.

yet

I mean they're pretty much there in basketball

Wow.

Thanks for reminding me that the nightmares can get worse. Though I actually think the nightmare may be that they achieve parity, and we remain locked in a battle for mediocrity.

Happy Halloween.
