FSU at Miami and other Big Night Games

I figured I'd start a thread for anyone watching.

Miami's attendance is about what you'd expect...

These unis, no words

Miami does strike first, but FSU just might takeover late in the game like they have all season

Muck Fiami

"When I was growing up, Virginia Tech was a school that was kicking ass and taking names, and it's time we get back to that" - James Franklin

Well right now Fiami is really Mucking up FSU. Hopefully the Noles figure out a way to win this game.

Yes,that's the Hokie Bird riding a camel. Why'd you ask?

heh heh

17-7 'Dawgs at the Half

VT '10--US Citizen; (804) Virginian By Birth; (979) Texan By the Grace of God.

Hate to say it but I think that Kaaya will be an All-American before he leaves Miami.

In Sam Rogers we trust.

Sadly true

I am very torn here. I hate Miami with a visceral passion. Hate them. But I love chaos. I love the dumbfounded look on Jameis' face every game while FSU is trailing. I love the thought of FSU getting a karmic smack-down for all the crap their players are getting away with. It just hurts my soul to hope for Miami to win, and I don't want Miami to have any hope at winning the Coastal. I DON'T KNOW HOW TO FEEL.

"Exit light..."

I want an ACC team in the first playoff, but it sucks that FSU is my only option.

Plan for the worst and hope for the best, not the other way around.

With all the baggage that program is gathering, I'm not so sure it's a bad thing if the Criminoles do miss out this year.

Do what I do. Cheer for the asteroid to hit!

Now that's an approach I hadn't considered. I told my wife about my quandary (she hates Miami as much as I do) and I decided at that point I would do like I do for the annual Miami-UVA game - hope that both teams lose. One will, so my reaction is always neutral.

"Exit light..."

I also root for the asteroids in that game.

Looks like da U is settling for big TDs and missing FGs tonight...

But FSU gets picked off with half a minute left in the Half

I'll say it. Go canes. I hope FSU never wins another game.

Not the bagman VT deserves, but the bagman VT needs right now.

Winston is not the qb that the talking heads want you to believe he is. Watch him make a fool of me in the second half. But pay attention how often his receiver is either wide open or runs 40 yards after the catch.

Late hit by Miami. Stupid, stupid, stupid

EDIT,
MIAMI FORCES FUMBLE

LSU has not been looking good at all tonight. Arkansas hasn't been that much better, but enough to be ahead.

And in UGA-Auburn, looks like Gurley is hurt.

Unreal score for the Noles, off a tipped Jameis pass.

It would not at all surprise me if some sort of brawl broke out during this game.

Uh-oh for the Canes

Ain't nobody better take Jameis' crab legs.

There's always a lighthouse. There's always a man. There's always a city.

I'll definitely be glad when Duke Johnson goes Pro.

Also, it didn't look nearly anything like that from the upper levels, but BOOM!

annnnnnnd.... the Noles take the lead with 3:05 left.

Game. I suppose what happened today means the Canes have absolutely no shot at the Coastal

Yep, the Canes are out of the Coastal race. GT is done in conference, but if Duke wins out, they take the prize. Two team race now.

"Exit light..."

And if it isn't us, I would much rather it be Duke or GT than Miami. Duke preferred, then we can say we bit the coastal champ.

Not that I want FSU to win it all, but ESPN has been trying to discredit them all night long.

Just watching the ASU game and the preview for halftime had Rece Davis saying

"FSU in trouble".....a mere 45 minutes after they won their game

They are looking for excuses to have a two loss SEC team in the Playoff over an undefeated FSU. Then again the committee is talking about a two loss Boise over undefeated Marshall in one of the big bowls.

The committee is running out of teams to rank ahead of Marshall. I don't think you should keep an unbeaten out of the major bowls. Then again, Im a Herd fan

West Virginian by birth, Hokie by choice

I forget at what point I heard it yesterday (might have been on Gameday), but someone said that there were two unbeaten teams (Miss St and FSU), and "oh yeah, there's Marshall too, but anyway..." That sort of irked me. I mean, their schedule isn't very much of a challenge, but they're a good team. The fact that they're not even in the CFP Top 25 is unbelievable to me. They're straight-up rolling everyone they play.

"Exit light..."

For the first time in a long time they are a complete team, passing, running, special teams and defense. This just happened to happen on a year where there long term planning for a good outside game or two failed.

gotta hate this from Tim Settle

Pretty sure he might not even have a commitable offer from them. Not going to worry much here. I think it comes down to VT, USCw, Washington State, and maybe Oklahoma State in the end.

In Sam Rogers we trust.

I like Miami. There I said it. Back when we were in the Big East people said we never played anybody, that was a huge point of contention with anyone who didn't think we were any good. But you'd always get to come back with, "Well, what about Miami?"

If we played and beat Miami in an given year, you'd have proven you could beat a good program. I find myself feeling a strange sort of kinship with Miami since their existence on our schedule brought us legitimacy.

Last night's game was an epic watch but entirely disappointing. Duke Johnson is probably my favorite player in the country, and I have unending respect for him. I don't know anything about him other than that he's a spectacular football player. I hope he's as good a person.

Talk about a heartbreaking day for RBs
