Ryan Williams and Darren Evans shouldn't be referred to as Crash and Burn, Mount Rushmore or anything else non bourbon powered. They're nicknamed The 100 Proof Backfield. It's treason against the State of Hokie Nation to call them anything else.

TECHmo Bowl
Loved the Hokie v Bronco vintage game. Brilliant
But would be more appropriate with GT. The game itself should be dubbed "TECHmo Bowl" as it is the battle of the top technical schools in the ACC. It's building into one of the best rivalries in the ACC too. These days TECHmo Bowl every year will be one of the biggest deciders in the ACC championship title race. And given the traded barbs between Beamer and Johnson last year about illegal tackles and plays makes it all the more compelling.
VT will get back on top this year with its loaded offense and win Techmo Bowl '10 and hopefully dominate this rivalry just like we are with the Commonwealth Cup. How awesome would it be if the winner recieved a trophy that looked like an old Nintendo game cartridge of the orginal game!
Brilliant
You can bet your ass that I'm going to use all of my Photoshop skills to make your idea a reality during VT-GT game week.
I think that TECHmo Bowl is becoming our most heated rivalry and I do think we'll have enough firepower to beat them this year.
TECHmo Bowl
Long live the newly dubbed rivalry TECHmo Bowl!!!
Can't wait to see the photoshop work this fall. When you publish the article give me a footnote at the bottom!
.... now... how do we convince the schools about the trophy??

You mean this?

I'm not 100% sure. The kid who wrote it follows me on Twitter. It's made its way around the Interwebs a bit too.
By the way, for those of you who haven't read it, Alex did a great job writing it so check it out.
(I picked up a paper copy for myself.)
Yeah that's the one I saw
It was a good read...
I'll put this here since it's most relevant
http://mobile.obnug.com/2010/8/25/1649703/is-boise-states-defensive-line
a = dissension among the smurfs on the ability of their D-line to stop the rush
b = TSideline.com recently wrote that their offensive rushing attack was actually shut down by said defensive line
c = 100 proof backfield
a+b+c = VT winning time of posession battle + Broncos becoming 1 dimensional
= Hokie victory
that's my story and I'm sticking to it.
