Bob: What would ya say ya do here?

2026 Season Challenge: TBD
Previous Challenges: Star Wars (2019), Marvel (2020), Batman (2021), Wrasslin' (2022)

We have a RUNNING game!

FAM!

I forgot how much college football makes my heart hurt, but I may have done a few laps around my living room after the last play. My dog wasn't a fan of the excitement.

I got a lab that fucking hates this shit. She's seen it coming all weekend. Just seeing my energy and nervousness and being like 'dad, I'm uncomfortable, are we okay?'

FAM!

Old sigline: I've been cutting back on the drinking.

New Sigline: lol it's football season.

Mine's a German Shepherd that was passed out most of the game. Several times when exciting things happened she'd wake up and give me a disapproving look that said: "It's past 9 PM on Sunday. Why are there people in the house and not going to bed?" Then a heavy, sassy sigh and back to sleep.

The min-pin chihuahua was unhappy at best.

The new 3-legged hound was more upset with the wife's yarn from cross-stitching.

The shepherd/mutt in my avatar was unamused. The beagle just doesn't care about anything. The cat's pissed that we're up but I won't sit in the chaise so she can flop out on my chest. But the lab has a heart attack every time i start bouncing around the house and go for the fireball.

Mrs. Lwyr hates me calling the game live before the announcers get around to it.

Aaaggggh get hiiimmmm aaaaaa holding aint gonna counnntttt INNNNCOOMMMMPLLLLLETEEEEE holding is declined HOKIES WIN!!!!!

While the ball's still in the air. Lab's staring sadly at the bedroom door.

Old sigline: I've been cutting back on the drinking.

New Sigline: lol it's football season.

my dogs hate VT touchdowns...

🦃 🦃 🦃

So do mine. They hate VT turnovers more.

In the last 2/3 years I've broken some things in frustration. Mrs. Lwyr very unhappy. Turnovers are very quiet in our house.

Old sigline: I've been cutting back on the drinking.

New Sigline: lol it's football season.

As long as they don't hate pussy touchdowns....

Hahaha I have a 12 week old puppy that was sound asleep until that last play. Ran into his crate yelping and pissing himself when the clock hit zero!

My malamute just looks at me like "not this shit again..."

I have no idea why my username is VT_Warthog.

Arkansas blew a 24-0 lead in the Belk Bowl.

Our shepherd mix said screw this and went to bed with the mrs. Mal won't leave my side if she can haha. Maybe deep down she is a service dog and can sense when I'm fixing to lose my shit.

I have no idea why my username is VT_Warthog.

Arkansas blew a 24-0 lead in the Belk Bowl.

I trained my pack (3 lab mixes). When I yell touchdown Hokies! They run to the treat jar.

We put the K in Kwality

Mine line up for high fives because I trained them to think "Touchdown!," "Three-pointer!," and "high five" all mean the same thing.

Season opener + renewed expectations + renewed rivalry + close game + FedEx PTSD = not sure if my heart is actually even still working.

What better place to run to!

Amateur superstar and idiot extraordinaire.

Me by myself with an 11mpnth old, a 2 year old, a 4 year old and a 6 year old in the stands? Don't think that will turn out well.

Wet stuff on the red stuff.

Got to give JJ props! I know a lot of people were talking bad about him in first half but that was more due to play calling in my own opinion. For being a red shirt freshman I think he had some good throws and balls of steel on some runs !

Play calling? Maybe. I thought it was more due to Cam Phillips being our only receiver getting open. I'm legitimately concerned about that.

FAM-FUCKIN-TASTIC!

Screw the couches, I hope they burn their entire state down. If there was anything worth a shit in WV, we would've kept it FAM.

uva sucks

"The Civil War was just a long con to get rid of WVU"

Best piece of trash talk I saw on r/cfb this week

I'M HERE. I LITERALLY CAN'T REALLY CAN'T TALK AT ALL, BUT I'M HERE,!!

, WE DID IT BITCHES!!!!!!!

M-MORTY....WE DID IITTT

...That's what Maryland does.

I don't give a damn what the fans think cause, quite frankly, I know what the fans want better than they do.

I'm pickle Rick!!!!

Reach for Excellence!

VT Football: It'll get after ya!

Proud Hokie since 2004.

...That's what Maryland does.

I don't give a damn what the fans think cause, quite frankly, I know what the fans want better than they do.

Knew we had it in the bag when Big Cat said he bet the 'neers... also a buddy of mine is convinced PFT somehow as a Tech connection

Mike Florio went to woovoo, so that's kind of a connection to Tech.

Hokies triumphant!

That actually worried me. I'm not sure how good of a gambler Big Cat is, but for some reason seeing him take WV was just scary. As for PFT there may be some merit to that, I remember on their podcast a few weeks ago when preseason was just getting under way he brought up the lunch pail. It was sort of related to their discussion (I think primarily of football being back and their GRIT stuff), but weird considering they've been going to WVU for GRIT week or that there would be other examples.

...That's what Maryland does.

I don't give a damn what the fans think cause, quite frankly, I know what the fans want better than they do.

1. FAM!!!
2. We won at Fed Ex Field
3. Against West Virginia
4. Let that all sink in

Oh Hokies football, please don't make me die young. Thanks.

Oh, suck it inbreds!

That thing took a solid six months off the end of my life.

Old sigline: I've been cutting back on the drinking.

New Sigline: lol it's football season.

Heaven is orange and maroon.

I don't know what a Hokie is but GOD is one of them!! Corso

"Take care of the little things and the big things will come."

Didn't like either penalty on the head coaches on the field. Geezus, refs. Football ain't Cotillion class.

Leonard. Duh.

Harumph! This is a gentlemans game. -random UVA fan

Brad: I already told you! I iron out the minutiae so Justin doesn't have to. I have people skills dammit! What the hell is wrong with you people?

Hey West Virginia, you can debate all you want about coal coming back but the Black Diamond ain't going anywhere.

They can try again in 2021.

FAM! Bring that Black Diamond Trophy back to Blacksburg!

You bet Dana fucking knows where that trophy lives NOW!!

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

Still doesn't know what it looks like in person though! FAM!

I'm sure he saw Frank dick-waving it on his way off the field

Got it, dick waving

Ask me no questions, and I'll tell you no lies

Yeah... Lemme add in a hyphen there to help clear that up

"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

First...you cut a hole in a trophy...

Think we have a new "caption this"

We put the K in Kwality

Feels so good to finally win one of these!

I said it earlier, but I'll say it again.

Y'all can downvote me fore this, but I'm about to speak the damn truth.

Fuck WVU.

Also, I'm drunk thanks to Sumo in a Sidecar and Elijah Craig small batch.

VT, so lucky amirite? /s

1 down, 14 to go.

OUR AUSSIE CAN PUNT FAM, I JUST LOVE EVERYONE!!!

uva sucks

People can and should talk about JJ but while FGs let us down, punting was huge!!!!

Bradburn is definitely tight with the ball at his feet. I'm hoping he tackles just as well.

He's going to be HUGE for us this year if he's able to keep up that type of performance. Ray Guy award watch out!

Guys, I need you all to know I'm alive. I survived the WVU fan section. There were some good ones, some indifferent ones, and then some serious pieces of work. One guy behind me and my fianc kept leaning on me to high five other fans and yelling "eat shit, polytechnic!" in my lady's ear. Classy guy. But screw him and he can suck on that loss to VT for another 4 years.

You should have protected your lady by removing his head and drinkinh his blood

Bob: What would ya say ya do here?

Brad: I already told you! I iron out the minutiae so Justin doesn't have to. I have people skills dammit! What the hell is wrong with you people?

Not in front of his kids. I'm no savage.

You showed remarkable restraint.

Have a leg.

Who knew that not physically assaulting an asshat would be so exhausting?

Assaluting? What exactly is ass saluting? /s

Have a leg for the restraint...

I'm shocked to see that a WVU fan has the mental capacity to know a word like "polytechnic" much less use it in a sentence.

He had to ask his buddy what VPI stood for first.

Oh hell yes we won!!!!!!!

P.S. Suck it Mountaineers!

Go Hokies!

I watched one hell of a football game after watching two screaming matches- one between Waffle House employees and then one between a customer and one of the first two combatants. I didn't get my toast, but...

FAM!

Five star get after it 100 percent Juice Key-Playing. MAN

I am getting too old for games like that. What excitement and drama.

Also guys, we have now broken TWO NFL stadium curses within the last year. Fuente has some serious dork magic at work.

My buddy said they paid $140 for an 8 mile Uber. After that game I would've had the adrenaline to jog 8 miles

Me, my dad, and my brother left right after we won it and we were just dancing and running around in the parking lot while they kept playing sandman
What a night

We loaded eight people into our car because Uber was charging $300 after midnight.

I'm sorry, I was distracted by my sister... Did VT get the win tonight?

"Nooooooooooo!"
~What happened?
"James Franklin to Virginia Tech...."
~Fuck me......*sigh*
"Oh my God.... They're gonna take all our recruits... like WTF bro...."
~*squints eyes in disbelief*

What is something said by most WVU fans tonight, Alex?

No turnovers!

What's
Important
Now

FAM! I was at the game and hungover by halftime but damn was that all worth it. Enter Sandman before that last defensive stand was LIT!!

Finally we played that in Fedex and actually won.

Also we actually won in Fedex.

I don't think I'm gonna be able to sleep after this. Way too much adrenaline.

Woooooo! FAM!!!!!!!!!

Nope. I won't sleep before at least 3 am tonight.

My voice is plumb shot, but we did it fam!

The Orange and Maroon you see, that's fighting on to victory.

There is no team I hate more than WVU, not even UVA. This one is extra sweet, and I'm going to savor it. Need to make sure the WVU fans see me at work this week.

I read this was our first regular season win in a neutral site in 22 years.

And we did it at FedEx

And it was against West Fn Virginia.

With a freshman QB

And we beat Mountain Jesus

I have to say, today was a good day

I have no idea why my username is VT_Warthog.

Arkansas blew a 24-0 lead in the Belk Bowl.

Don't yell so much next time and she might come back for round 2

Hey can somebody post a link to the Mountaineer meltdown (see what I did there) please?

Oh that's grand.

It's nice to wake up at 4:30 to watch a hokies victory for a chance.

Well, I am going to give Will Grier credit for one thing.

Solid pick up on the wife front.

Ex Buccaneers cheerleader. Very easy on the eyes.

from a WVU fan post:

" The WVU fans that I sat with also were rude. Some of them were booing when VT players would get hurt, and others would shout, break the kids leg,. Now I know that VT fans may have been rude as well but, come on WVU we are better than that."

I would say that sums up the entirety of the WVU fan base. This guy has a lot of work to do to turn those people into decent fans of the game.

Going to school during the Big East days and spending time working in the coal industry has given me severe hatred of WVU. Most recent grads I've worked with don't have that deep seated hatred that they should for WVU. In conclusion FAM! (I think I used that right) and *blank* WVU.

Never crimp your blasting caps with your teeth. - Dr Haycocks

Its always 110 Holden...said every mining engineer ever.

Yeah, consider me one of the younger fans that understood but didn't fully get it until last night. I don't like UVA or Miami or GT after dealing with their fans the years I was in school/marching band. I definitely got worked up into the rivalry leading up to the game but after being there: Fuck. Those. Guys.

A buddy of mine has a few bruised ribs after being jumped from behind in a bathroom unprovoked (police/security could only catch one guy and arrested him). A guy next to me went from arguing w/ his girlfriend to almost physically attacking one of the girls I was with, and would have received a right hand with as many keys between the knuckles I could have managed in return.

There are large groups of WVU fans I saw that were amazing opposing fans - passionate and loud and just on the right side of a little obnoxious and rowdy. But way too many assholes that want to start a brawl - I hope Whit cancels the series so we don't do anything else that puts a dime in their pocket until they clean up their act.

I love how this works on so many levels.

We need to make sure we keep clips of each time the opposing coach slams his headset on the turf so we can make a compilation video of all of them at the end of the season.
