UVA fan hanging over the wall should get that on a t-shirt

upside down so the world could read it.

We should all get that on a tee shirt.

KU beat Texas. Next.

🦃 🦃 🦃

Texas beat Notre Dame, Notre Dame beat Miami, Miami beat Pitt, Pitt beat Clemson, Clemson actually beat Louisville.

Therefore (deep breath) Kansas is clearly the superior 10 loss team.

Leave it to UVA to break the chain by not actually beating Louisville.

How tf are we not the best with 4 losses

lol, don't get hung up on it man.

Our best win was in a hurricane and didn't count \s

I miss that show

@AMB4VT

Because LSU would be a 5-loss team if they actually played in their conference championship game, like we did.

Um, leg for the loser reference!

Isn't that from The Jerk?

Agree. Count me among those thinking 5-1 to start...

I... um... what is...

I don't understand what's going on here.

Thought I was starting off my Monday with a stroke...

I love a good nap. Sometimes that's all that's getting me out of bed in the morning.

QBSlacker seems somewhat less delusional:

I think we'll go undefeated

through week 1.

Sometimes we live no particular way but our own

That would be a slight improvement over last year

Be a shame if they lost last years claim to 5th best team in the state with a loss.

Sometimes we live no particular way but our own

Right and so what were we saying about...

Some of those smiles look a little forced. I think they just figured out how big a sinkhole they just stepped into.

Those poor bastards

Fun Fact: they refer to their campus as The Ground because if you're there, you've hit rock bottom.

A decade on TKP and it's been time well spent.

That is a much more favorable schedule for them. I will be surprised if they aren't playing VT with a chance for a bowl game.

I won't be.

I'm withholding judgement until their spring game. Unless they cancel it for a spring flower festival again in which case I can only assume they'll do just as badly this year as last.

I would be surprised if they improved their win total by a whopping 3 games. That's a tall task for that program.

Onward and upward

The Spiders appeared to be a pretty favorable matchup for them last year. I will be surprised if they aren't playing VT with a chance for a Bronco-record 3 wins

William & Mary Charlottesville, VA (W)
Indiana Charlottesville, VA (W) No. They will lose to Indiana.
Connecticut Charlottesville, VA (W)
at Boise State Boise, ID (L)
Boston College Charlottesville, VA (W) Probably not.
Duke Charlottesville, VA (L)
Georgia Tech Charlottesville, VA (L)
at Louisville Louisville, KY (L)
at Miami Miami Gardens, FL (L)
at North Carolina Chapel Hill, NC (W) Wow. Right now UVA couldn't beat UNC in a bad year.
at Pittsburgh Pittsburgh, PA (L)
Virginia Tech Charlottesville, VA (W) Really?.............Really?

3 wins. I'd say 80% chance they win 3 games next year. Maybe 4 if they get lucky.

Hey 3 wins would be a 50% improvement over this year, at that rate it will only take Bronco his entire contract to make them relevant. Hum, I wonder if that is his plan.

Wow, you can't make this stuff up. The desperation over in Hoo country is unreal.

How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Jet Sweep

From the article:

What Bronco needs is a few years to establish recruiting connections, revamp the football culture, and mold his recruits into the kind of players that fit his coaching style.

Even when you get skunked; fishing never lets you down. 🎣

can you imagine VPI making the pitch to recruits? "Sure, you can go play for Bronco, if you like four win seasons and staying home during bowl season"

Now Imagine a world when the likes of Air Force and Texas State can use that against you... That Mendenhall.... Such a genius

"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

That same guy actually used this Calvin and Hobbs comic below to describe their approach to the football season. Problem is he was equating that UVA went for the A and got a C. In reality, UVA was going for a C- and received an F-.

But, I will give him props for referencing Calvin and Hobbs, which is one of the greatest comics of all 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."

I'm not sure how to interpret the award. I'm thinking it's, "10 losses? Couldn't have happened to a better team. "

We are hoping to land Devon Hunter, top VA prospect, this evening.

The newest post on The Sabre is:

How reasonalbe is it for us to hope that Sammy Ochoa gives

our coaching staff a verbal commitment to us this weekend?

That's right, Sammy Ochoa, the massive 2* prospect who is "cool" on his UVA interest.

With an offer list of Texas State, Navy, Air Force, and Virginia

"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

And on that list, LOLUVa is battling it out with Texas State for the honor of biggest dumpster fire of a program.

Makes you wonder if that Navy offer is commitable.

Not trying to ruin the joke, but even if it is committable, signing with Navy is equivalent to committing to serving 6(?) years after you finish, which is a turnoff to many recruits.

Well it's a moot point of Navy doesn't want him to play football for them.

Can't blame a UVA fan for being unreasonalbe

21st century QBs Undefeated vs UVA:
MV7, MV5, LT3, Grant Wells, Braxton Burmeister, Ryan Willis, Josh Jackson, Jerod Evans, Michael Brewer, Tyrod Taylor, Sean Glennon, and Grant Noel. That's right, UVA. You couldn't beat Grant Noel.

"Congratulations, you sucked the best." - My friend sitting next to me wearing a UVA sweatshirt.
