Definitely not an Alabama-ish team
Not lining up under center from the 1 worked!!
Wow, just wow! I need (another) drink!
Now can the defense just hold on for 19 seconds
UNC is just going to air it the f&ck out
This is what nightmares are made of.
ha
What even is this game
Holy shit we actually scored! Finally. Now please just don't screw this up
Where has this intensity been all game. I mean. FFS!
WOOOOOOOO
Annnd LOLUVA wins because of a personal foul penalty on Miami....
IM SO NERVOUS
So much heart from this team to come back.
Dalton Keene is my spirit animal.
It's good to see the guys so alive and happy on the sideline.
Sacksburg south!
Told you guys. You take this too seriously. Drink more. For your health.
Flashes of Matt Ryan...
Turning point for the season.
That one was for momma
Suck it Fedora!
Laaser just called it Blacksburg South!
Woo-goo! Let's oarty like we had it o the bag the whole time :)
Fuente just showed Bud how to tackle there
That was the worse win ever. 1-0 it is.
I just told my wife "that was the most unsatisfying win ever". ...she looked at me the way you all are right now.
Haha. Same here. My wife walked by seeing me with my head in my hands, turned and started to walk off thinking we lost and she knew to stay clear. I had to call her back to say we won. Man, that was stressful. Never have I seen so many big plays surrendered and still somehow win this thing. 1-0 it is.
Yaaaaaaaaaas Gaines!!!!
Can I see that intensity for the other 55 minutes, please?
Wow....this sucked but we won
Willis is so HIGH RISK, HIGH REWARD
It worked! I used reverse psychology!
Willis just had a season defining drive... his run on 4th and 8 was amazing!
He had a rough night before but that was clutch!!!
Defense somehow kept us in it...lots of bad tackles but huge goal line stands
Ugly ugly game!!!
Go Hokies!!!
FAM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I love you all, Fam!
Did Fuente tackle Foster?!
Might rival the Beamer 0-0 arms in the air
Maybe tripped over him?
Not good for one's health.
Worst win in Tech history.
Russell Athletic Bowl was worse
Good thing for A. J. Hughes. That's what I choose to remember about that one.
Now if UVA can hang on!! *barf*
Yes... Yes he did
Fuente tackles Foster! Maybe he should teach our D how to do that!
ugly wins are still wins!!! FAM!!!
Did fuente just assault foster? Is there a wwe post victory moment coming soon?
BROTHERS DON'T SHAKE HANDS!! BROTHERS GOTTA HUG!!!
Fedora looks like he's ready to blow a line off a hookers butt
We weren't the team to fumble on the 1 yard line this game fam!!!!
Despite Cornelson's best efforts to make us lose this game, Willis put together a hell of a drive to win this game. Hats off to him for playing tough & sticking it out. Whew. That was not a fun game to watch but damn we pulled it out. This team is going to give us all liver failure this season lol
Seriously....whichever QB is in the game needs to do the exact opposite of what Cornelson calls......all the plays Willis made were his own reads....if he didnt decide to tuck and run as much as he did, we'd be on the opposite end of this spectrum. There's no doubt, Cornelson is terrible, his play calling in big situations is terrible (besides the Keene TD), and I seriously hope we look at replacing him. However, he is Fuentes boy so unfortunately i dont think it will happen.
Edit ...meant for above but still applies...I cannot understand some of the play calls tonight...
Ugliest, luckiest Tech win I've ever seen. I'll take it.
Miami just lost !
LOLUVA "fan" stormed the field like the beat an FCS team.
That puts VT in first place on the Coastal as improbable and shaky as that might be.
LETS GOOOOOO
Hokies!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I love you all, Fam!
I hate you all...pass the bourbon
Lucky win. I'm to drunk to complain!
My body is ready for the wasp review and write up
The U is Bak!
...to sucking.
VicTory!!!
WVU lost, UVA won.
I'm not sure we deserve that win, but I will take it!
Now maybe Willis turns a corner and goes on a tear!
I still think with more competent play calling the offense would be fine, but I'm still worried about the defense.
We seriously need to work on tackling. And coverage. And pressuring the quarterback
I don't get it. They've shown flashes of what they can be, but they're incapable of putting a full game together. R
And blocking. And non-QB running the football.
TLDR; EVERYTHING
On a more serious note, thankful for the bye to work on cleaning this up or at least work on finding ways to hide the mess in the closet.
In other words, we need to defense better.
Summarizing everyones comments "we need to get better everywhere"
This fucking game!!!
Outside of the win, I have hated this game with the energy of a thousand suns.
We didn't deserve the win but fuck fedora ya ass hat
Worst-looking win since the Delaware shutout 27-0, but I'll take it!
Oh my Gawd!!!! That was FUGLY but we got the W. I swear football is going to kill me!
Well that Willis scramble on 4th was all-world. Still don't love him but definitely didn't want to see him taken out at the end. Let's get QP more plays moving forward
Willis definitely has some gamer in him. This gritty win will only help us down the road

gritty win?
I knew what was coming but I clicked anyway
This was the first game on my Apple TV. I've finally cut the cord.
Fuente very frustrated after the game about not taking what they gave us on offense, and failing to execute simple stuff.
Gave QP a shutout and alluded to using him in short yardage.
Another shout out to Kumah and Savoy on their performances.
Also from CJF: "I got news for ya, its gonna be like this every week" so buckle up and grab the bourbon
Kentucky doesn't have enough bourbon for this football season!
There is not enough alcohol in the world for this football season.....
WHAT THE FUCK.........I MEAN, LIKE,
WHAT
THE
FUCK
That game was hot garbage saved by some kids with real heart.
Bahahahah.... just read this entire thread. It was very exciting because I already knew the outcome but there is some comedy gold in these posts. PS. for those suggesting this was the worst win ever, I propose Temple 2003 as a counter.
Reading through this entire thread after I bailed was VERY VERY entertaining. lol.
