A dream I had

So, this is obviously just a dream, but I thought it pertinent and fantastic if it turns prophetic.

Last night, in my dream, I watched the National Championship Game. For the second year in a row, the ACC beat a SEC team to win the Championship.

The game was Hokies versus Tigers (LSU).

We did not have a perfect season. However, after narrowly losing to Ohio State, we went on a domination tour of all of our opponents, beating an, until then, undefeated Florida State team that were the favorites to repeat for National Championship (and number one team).

It was beautiful, and seeing Beamer lift that crystal ball brought tears to my eyes, as FINALLY, he had it.

Alas...only a dream. But a good dream.

I too have had similar dreams...none of my dreams turn out to be prophetic, unfortunately :/

Onward and upward

Usually when I have dreams like that, they end up with me doing something like this

oof

Who was our starting QB in your dream?

Michaelrod Tayvick by any chance?

your pic isn't showing up for me (probably my computer being crappy), but you get an upvote anyways because i see the title of it is "drooling" and that fits well with this situation.

@historyhokie.bsky.social

I'll return the favor! It was actually a little bit of a nice surprise for me because it ended up being an animated drooling smiley rather than just a regular drooling smiley

Who was our starting QB in your dream?

In my dream, the winning TD was a pass from Ford to Stanford, who broke 2 tackles and ran 42 yards in the remaining seconds of the game with us down 3 points before the play.

That sounds like a lovely dream. Much better than the one I had.
It was the zombie apocalypse and I was running through various buildings n stuff with a group of friends, all of us heavily armed. After fighting our way through several zombified areas, we came to an old folks' home. We fought our way through, only to realize it was just an old folks' home, no zombies. We kinda accidentally offed like a dozen old people. Whoops. Then we hotwired some cars and booked it.

All in all, a very odd dream (other details were left out for the sake of brevity), and not nearly as encouraging as the thought of Beamer winning his first National Championship.

When I was reading about y'all blasting the walking dead I was getting excited, but then upon further reading I'm like awww. Sad.

True Hokies STICK IT IN!!!

STICK IT IN Army of Virginia Tech

Yeahhh......and then we set ourselves up in a little town and fortified it.
And people started calling me 'The Governor' and I kinda liked it.
So then some other people took over a nearby prison.......

Most importantly did you DVR it?

I actually lost my totem some time ago, so I haven't been real sure what is a dream and what is reality, but I'm starting to suspect that what you dreamed was real and what I'm experiencing now is a dream. Can't wait to read all about it on the real TKP! Luckily, I had the presence of mind to dream up some train tracks right outside of my apartment...

That's a beautiful dream. Too good to B true . It had to be a dream. But in college football, miracles do happen , like Auburn experienced last year. Next year could be our miracle year. anything can happen. I do know that we have the foundation for your dream to come true with some hard work.

Allen Ox

Or for that matter FSU. Sure they had a fantastic foundation, but Jameis Winston lit it up.

Winston is no Payton Manning, and look what Seattle did to him. The Hokie Defense has the same potential.

You just made me all giddy inside.

In Sam Rogers we trust.

And all I get are dreams about women...geesh!

Take the shortest route to the ball and arrive in bad humor.

you ever have one of those half awake/half asleep dreams where your eyes are open but you cant move because that part of your brain is still asleep and you think someone's standing over the bed and all you can do is hope they dont suck your soul out through your face dementor style but then they just sort of disappear and you realize it was just a dream?

cause those used to freak me out.

I've never actually had it happen to me, but I have heard of a case where it happened to a guy who thought he was dreaming someone was robbing his house, and then it turned out someone was actually robbing his house

I think that type of dream is quite common and may be a manifestation of a fear of an unknown future ahead. I used to get dreams like that during my last two years at Tech because I had no idea what to do with myself after graduation (probably happened less than ten times). After the second or third one, I would quickly realize what was going on during the dream and try to make noise or scream to wake myself up. Fortunately, my vocal cords were still asleep so I would only make enough noise to wake myself and not scare the shit out of my roomates.

I had a dream where I was late to work today.

To make up for it make sure you leave work a little early!
