College football talk is boring in March. To liven it up, here a bit of VT (and CFB) trivia.
Since Bud Foster took over the reins as co-defensive coordinator in 1995, Virginia Tech leads the country in the number of times we've laid the smack down and blanked our opponents with 29 shutouts. Alabama is next in that span with 27, and no one else is (relatively) close.
Rank.. | Team.. | Shutouts.. | Avg Score.. | Opps Record |
---|---|---|---|---|
1. | Virginia Tech | 29 | (38.45-0) | (126-179-0)-0.413 |
2. | Alabama | 27 | (37.22-0) | (152-149-0)-0.505 |
3. | Ohio St. | 21 | (46.57-0) | (80-149-1)-0.350 |
4. | Kansas St. | 20 | (48.75-0) | (79-130-0)-0.378 |
5. | LSU | 18 | (42.94-0) | (89-111-0)-0.445 |
