Wow

A win for the "Special" Teams already!!!

And again!

HOKIE HOKIE HOKIE HI

And another!

Wtf, Frank?

again!

Well what do you know

HOKIE HOKIE HOKIE HI
'14 grad

Glad to see Tweedy with the start and sack on first play

How about these helmets?

I kinda like them.... they're a little tacky, but they're not bad.

I don't mind the number, but the hokie bird reminds me of that hideous leprechaun notre dame had

HOKIE HOKIE HOKIE HI
'14 grad

Hideous

Looks like an emaciated hokie bird with an abnormally large head. Definitely should never be worn again.

Wow... terrible punt coverage.

3 ST fuckups in a row!

This is going to be a shitty game.

There is a good possibility this game will put me to sleep.

VT special teams...

It'd be nice if you weren't playing like crap. Thanks.

May we all get what we want and never what we deserve.

Is this the same team that held FSU to -14 rush yards?? BC o-line is giving us the business

I have every confidence that Bud

will keep them under 20 points. The real question is how the offense reacts to this impenetrable BC defense.

Let me take a stab at our offensive game plan.....run, run, pass, punt

At least we didn't give up a TD there.

story of the year, special teams gives up a huge play and the d has no hope, agreed very lucky we held them to just a fg

tyrod did it mikey! tyrod did it!

If Amidon hadn't tripped on the route it would be 7-0

HOLY SHIT COREY FULLER YOU ARE DA MAN!

My response:

COREY FUCKING FULLER I LOVE YOU

Best duos in Hokie history: Hall & Adibi, 3rd & Tyrod, Georgia & Liz

Fuller!

Good hands drill pays off!

May we all get what we want and never what we deserve.

ahahahahaha

Gotta catch your D's

GO FOR IT

No point

When we're just gonna end up kicking a field goal anyway.

Logan 3:16

That fourth down sneak...

is what I miss.

Row Z forever.

Red Zone issues continue

Unable to score a TD in the Redzone

A new season...new hope

Story of the year...

This is my opportunity to remind everyone

that this is the 105th ranked defense in FBS. I'm glad for points, but get your shit together offense!

Yep

But they can really get after ya!

A new season...new hope

What kind of name is Spiffy Evans? ...Reminds me of this.

Dan Smith

@TheTurkeyTavern

"The player formerly known as MouseCop."

In other news, INTERCEPTED!

Sweet Interception

I dont care what the refs or replay says that is going to be an interception in my book

A new season...new hope

Just like it was a catch. And it was.

Best duos in Hokie history: Hall & Adibi, 3rd & Tyrod, Georgia & Liz

That's definitely a pick.

No brainer here. What a play.

Row Z forever.

thank you d line, the refs make a bad no int call and they stuff bc

tyrod did it mikey! tyrod did it!

Every beat reporter...

Just tweeted the call should have been overturned. Give me a break.

Row Z forever.

This ACC referee

mafia needs to be busted up.

The officiating in VT games has been average to extremely poor this season (plus the sugar bowl).

#GOACCREPLAYS

Nuff said

A new season...new hope

Pistol

Wow it took the whole season but I think we finally learned how to use the pistol...Doesnt hurt that BC's D sucks

A new season...new hope

Announcers

Where is Doug Flutie? Was he too busy to call this game for the ACC Network?

A new season...new hope

If the Defense doesnt...

If the defense doesnt score a td we will lose this game. Pitiful offense game plan and execution of the dumbest plays i have ever seen. Our o line is also sucking against a pretty bad defense of BC.

There are wolves and there are sheep, I am the sheep dog

Who's looking forward to Alabama next season?

Gonna get monkeystomped

Jim Bollman

Our defense is making him look good...Looks like we wont be able to get him to be our OC/Oline coach...(Sarcasm)

A new season...new hope

nostradamus

Why does French have to be so right, all the time

HOKIE HOKIE HOKIE HI
'14 grad

Playing down to their level

Why are we making the 105th ranked defense look like Bama

May we all get what we want and never what we deserve.

Just seems like another opportunity for Tech to underperform against another bad team.

WHO HAD THAT ASSIGNMENT???? GOD DAMN IT.

no idea but bonner was pointing at him as he was wide open and the ball being thrown to him

tyrod did it mikey! tyrod did it!

Come On

Matt Ryan is playing for them still

A new season...new hope

Matt Damon could have made that TD throw...no one picked up their #1 receiver

You leave Matt Damon out of this...

A new season...new hope

Foster

Bud Foster must want to do this every game....

It's gonna be hard playing from behind with that crazy crowd of 6,000 all riled up

May we all get what we want and never what we deserve.

Maybe me think of this

A new season...new hope

At least

our basketball team plays with heart. Am I right?

Thankfully. That's what I'm thankful for this Thanksgiving.

More shots of bad tailgating food

Apples?

@hokietailgate

Thomas had him underneath and decides to go to the more risky out route.

And LT's draft stock plummeting in front of our eyes.....

Draft Stock

It still had value? Not to be mean but he has been playing inconsistantly like this all year

A new season...new hope

If, after the entire season so far, both McShay and Kiper believe he's still a 1st round pick, why would this game cause any real damage?

Doug Flutie

Did not realize they had a statue of him outside of the stadium

A new season...new hope

We need statues erected

Frank and?

@hokietailgate

Beans.

Danny Coale

For the Nebraska game...The Miracle at Lane

A new season...new hope

Kyshoen Jarrett

Is our best player on defense... Or at least the most consistent.

EXUM

INT!!!!! and against Spiffy Evans

A new season...new hope

High pass by Thomas causes Asante to pull a muscle..... Oh the irony.

this offense is reminding me of 2008, run, run, incomplete pass, punt....all game

tyrod did it mikey! tyrod did it!

Loss at BC

Wasnt that the year we lost there?

A new season...new hope

yeah lost at bc and won acc title over them

tyrod did it mikey! tyrod did it!

Serious post

Seems like most of the team has given up on this season or are hopefully feeling the effects of losing a close one to FSU

A new season...new hope

Logan

3 out of 10. Some of it is because of the pressure but he's gotta start throwing catchable balls

May we all get what we want and never what we deserve.

Gotta make that sack Gayle.

PI call

Atleast it wasnt on Exum for once

A new season...new hope

A little off topic

OhioHokie - Would you like a ticket to the Michigan game. You can have it for whatever it costs me to upgrade it. ($30-$40). Section 6A.

"I never surprise myself"

Thank you

but I dont know if I will be in C-bus for the game

A new season...new hope

Haven't seen Marcus Davis on the field...

anyone see him?

Row Z forever.

Not that I've noticed

Not that I'm complaining

Ut Prosim

He was listed as questionable on the injury report, he's been hobbled by a bruised ego.

I'm here for the memes, I just stay for the football.

Dyrell and him arent starting

Dont know if they will see the field or not...Looks like both Knowles and Fuller were blocking and no one caught that screen

A new season...new hope

C'mon gregory

this is starting to get frustrating....

May we all get what we want and never what we deserve.

that run was unreal idk why Coleman hasn't gotten much time

tyrod did it mikey! tyrod did it!

1 yard needed for the first, Gregory running completely parallel with the LoS. Any cut up field and you fall forward for the 1st...

I should have stayed on the golf course. This is hard to watch

"I never surprise myself"

should have been intercepted

Wow. Good improv there.

And then we ruin it by running a screen.

we hadn't run one this drive so we had to get a few negative yards before half

tyrod did it mikey! tyrod did it!

Doesn't make any sense... 3rd and 2 and we throw it 5 yards behind the line of scrimmage.

Screen Call

Totally expected but because they were expecting it and know we know they were expecting it so we use it because they wouldnt expect us to use it....GAME PLANNING

A new season...new hope

late over the middle like that against zone is gonna get a receiver killed

Going for it on fourth

Wow

A new season...new hope

Dadi

looks like a smooth power forward out there.

Row Z forever.

If BC scores a touchdown

I am going to laugh my ass off...

A new season...new hope

We're gonna let them score before half... -___-

I don't know if I can watch this team play the second half. But then I remember Duke.

3 points in the half on the 105th defense in the country!!

I'm okay with losing

if it means more offensive jobs up for grabs.

And all the people said?

Amen....

We're only 2-3 coaches from winning this thing!

Frankinator

Better make one hell of a half-time speech to these boys

May we all get what we want and never what we deserve.

"Now men...that right there....thats a good team right there......but just remember we are just 3-4 plays away from winning this thing"

That Team Right There

Can Really Get After Ya!!

A new season...new hope

Speeches

A new season...new hope

Inches...

We are NOT that team. We don't fight or claw for anything. We play to the level of our competition and it definitely shows. We should be up by at least a TD right now.

Just tuning in to TV broadcast

But heard the radio guys sounding legitimately baffled when both receivers blocked on the screen earlier.
That one play is this season in a nutshell.

Another One

A new season...new hope

Is it just me...or do we think that O'Caine owes Logan Thomas about..let's say 10 million dollars? I've never seen someone fall so far off draft boards for simply performance/production.

O'Caine doesn't make Logan throw balls in the dirt...

and to the other team

@TheTurkeyTavern

And 1 more

A new season...new hope

Frank Beamer

"Make Plays"

A new season...new hope

KNOWLES! FUTURE PLAYMAKER

We should only recruit

kids from the Bahamas

If we don't make this a TD... This is going to get ugly

why!?

would you put in the smallest back and one of the worst blocking backs on the team when we get inside the 10.

May we all get what we want and never what we deserve.

Marcus Davis sighting

for the first time today, right?
Presumably he was suspended for the first half

Made a Catch

But still needs to work on ball Security

A new season...new hope

Issue on the snap causes Logan to have to run that one himself. Looked like a designed jet sweep.

Just. snap. the. ball. correctly.

Hey look! We scored!

Wait for the reversal on Replay

#GOACCREPLY

A new season...new hope

Tim Brandt and

the asshat next to him are insane.

Row Z forever.

I can't believe

they thought that was questionable

This is the best I could do at halftime.

Location

I think you put his head on the wrong end of the horse.

Horse Treadmill

was going to call it out

A new season...new hope

Pretty mad i missed it

"I never surprise myself"

BC O-line Coach

We need hire him they are running it down our throats

A new season...new hope

Their line is also a lot bigger than ours.

I didnt tune in until halftime. What happened to the team from last week? I'm not surprised by the offense, BCs defense is about like Miamis. What I don't understand is the defense. I'm surprised Buds boys are still this inconsistent this far into the seasons. I mean, there have been shaky defenses in the past (2009), but they usually straight up as the year goes on. I've never seen one of his defenses this bad this far into the season.

Run defense

Hello? FSU game?

Exum

has really elevated his game since the start of the season.
Happy for him.

No rush on the punt (unblocked with a great angle and just standing there) and fair catch when you have a 10+ yard cushion?

Beamerball, baby

Malleck cannot pass block.

LOL the VT offense makes the BC defense seem like world beaters

Way to go and get the ball marcus! Only if they would have benched your ass at the beginning of the season.

Props

to Davis. He fought for that one.

MD can catch, sometimes. Ball was still underthrown and late.

True. However, Logan did that last year too. The difference was he had guys who actually wanted to catch the ball last year.

Yup. Should have been on a line and over the shoulder. Davis had at least three steps on the defender. Instead he floated it and it ended up short.

Looks like Marcus can play after waiting a half on the bench. Is this the first YouTube 1/2 suspension?

Bruce

Big bruce taylor has been everywhere today, what a stud.

May we all get what we want and never what we deserve.

4th quarter stat to ponder

Army put up 34 points on BC's defense.
Virginia Tech has put up 17 through three quarters.

And virtually all of our offense has come on two lucky deep passes.

3 man rush

and they still get all the pressure in the world on logan

May we all get what we want and never what we deserve.

Defense

HOLD

Exum has gotten lucky TWICE today

Q1 - End zone when the ball hit the receiver in the arms and just now. Wow.

Row Z forever.

How do we have

a kickoff only make it to the 17 yard line?

Dunno if it's super windy there or what, but kicking has been terrible for both teams today

Best duos in Hokie history: Hall & Adibi, 3rd & Tyrod, Georgia & Liz

lol. how?

and there it is

WTF is wrong with our D this game?

Best duos in Hokie history: Hall & Adibi, 3rd & Tyrod, Georgia & Liz

I think the better question is what is wrong with our defense this entire season.

I mean, we've had up games and we've had down games, but this is definitely a down game. We're getting gashed

Best duos in Hokie history: Hall & Adibi, 3rd & Tyrod, Georgia & Liz

Can the offense even move the ball to put us in a position to make a tying field goal???

Nice block on that screen!

There you go M.Davis!

Pretty pass, great catch. If Marcus makes that one against FSU, maybe the outcome is different

Really wish we had used Scales better this year, rather than trying to "get Holmes going"

Best duos in Hokie history: Hall & Adibi, 3rd & Tyrod, Georgia & Liz

Just saw Scales thanking his O-Linemen. I like that, you don't see people do that too often....and then the big boys get bitched on the next play.

That was

fantastic run blocking.

not going for the win, just going for the tie.... im so sick of this bullshit

I love our red zone O. Really. It doesn't make me want to claw my eyes out at all...

Best duos in Hokie history: Hall & Adibi, 3rd & Tyrod, Georgia & Liz

Maybe super genius forgot to install the red zone offense this year?

WILL SOMEBODY TELL OCAINSPRING THAT YOU STILL HAVE TO PLAY OFFENSE WHEN YOU'RE INSIDE THE 20 YARD LINE?!

Seriously, we only play offense between the 20s.

Ugh, thank god. Fucking conservative play calling, rar

Best duos in Hokie history: Hall & Adibi, 3rd & Tyrod, Georgia & Liz

Well, good kick! Way to tie it up!

Barely good! That replay made me cringe

Best duos in Hokie history: Hall & Adibi, 3rd & Tyrod, Georgia & Liz

I love how the announcers give

credit to BC's D for being so good near their own goal line. They really should give the credit to O'CainSpring.

hahahaha, I seriously was thinking that myself.

SCALES. YOU DA MANNNN!

OMG Scales, thank you for keeping on pushing

Best duos in Hokie history: Hall & Adibi, 3rd & Tyrod, Georgia & Liz

Guess they don't trust Logans arm? Are we planning on a field goal?

Okay, a pass. Good.

#DUNNDEAL

#DUNNFORHEISMAN

Nice catch!

FENCE

whatever it takes

I don't care how ugly it is, I just want to win this game

Win!

Ugliest game I've seen in a while.

OMG, with that 10-yard cushion I thought for sure he was going to take it into the end zone. Thank you D!

Best duos in Hokie history: Hall & Adibi, 3rd & Tyrod, Georgia & Liz

It's now officially UVA week

Prepare yourselves

i hope the final drive of regulation is still a sign to Beamer that Ocainspring needs to go!
