Belk Bowl: Virginia Tech vs Kentucky

Virginia Tech meets Kentucky in the Belk Bowl in Charlotte on December 31.

Tickets available via Hokie Sports or TicketMaster. Better deals (and seats) on Hokie Sports, and you'll be supporting VT by purchasing through their allotment. I purchased tickets via the Hokie Club presale, but oddly, my tickets didn't seem to get assigned until I called them up the next day and asked where my tickets were. Weird.

The Belk Bowl has some decent Twitter game. Their announcement on twitter used Baby Yoda, with VT and Kentucky logos for eyes:

Kentucky has a decent team. VT has a decent team. VT is currently favored by three in Vegas, but ESPN's Power Index gives Kentucky a 58% chance of winning. VT last faced Kentucky in October, 1987 (lost 14-7). Who will actually win this is anyone's guess. Both teams will badly want a win to put a nice finishing touch on their season.

Is this a good matchup vs an SEC team? Will VT win? It's certainly within striking distance for someone who wants to see one last game live this year. Also worth mentioning, it's Bud's last game.

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 told him I’d crawl on my hands and knees to be the DL coach at Virginia Tech. Now, all of a sudden, I’m sitting in this chair and I told him I’d still crawl on my hands and knees to work here. I just want to be here.
