Hokies-Hoos will be broadcast on ESPNU at 3:30 PM. North Carolina will host Duke at noon. That game will be on ESPN2. If Duke loses and Virginia Tech wins, then the Hokies head to Charlotte to play Florida State.

And yes, courtesy of VTBox, we announced game times with a GIF.

I just hope knowing the result of the Duke UNC game doesn't affect how we play

Doubt the coaches will let them know. The only way the should know is if they look up at the scoreboard during the game, which I think they would only do if they are winning comfortably.

In Sam Rogers we trust.

I'm also worried about this... Just worried if Duke wins we're disappointed and come out flat, or if Duke loses all the pressure is on...

I definitely just let this gif suck me in for about 10 minutes

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.

It's gonna be cold. Might want to factor that in.

Zomf,
My daughter (about the same age) has been to every home game so far this season. You just gotta make sure you plan ahead a little bit [fleece onesie w/ mittens and feet, ear protection (earmuffs for kids or baby banz). We strap her in a carrier and off we go. She's even been known to take a nap or two during the game.

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.

A turkey leg to you sir Horse, since I can't get you any virtual oats. My daughter is officially a meme!

I'll be there - will probably be tailgating in the Fontaine Ave Research Center parking lot. It's a bit of a walk to the game, but it's very close to 250/29.

Blue Collar Hokie's picture Blue Collar Hokie | 12 years 7 months # ^

hey, that's where we'll be. yeah, it's a good hump, probably comparable to walking to lane from price's fork. plus you have the woods right there to avoid the port-a-potty lines.

Exactly - a perfect spot. Last time the walk back was great - it was all Hokies Chanting "Let's Go" the entire way. It was glorius.

Dark, dark Brown 2007 Explorer with Hokie Magnets, probably a Tan tent - will have plenty of drink!

this is awesome...but I thought they were announcing on Monday?

zomfgbbqhax's picture zomfgbbqhax | 12 years 7 months # ^

They waited and they had to announce six days before the game. That means by Sunday. What has me surprised is that we're the 3:30 and not the more important to the division UNC-Duke

that's been the theme all season...UVA has had a ton of 330 games and none of the games they play in are important to the conference race

Given that the Iron Bowl is at 3:30 on CBS, I'm thinking that the UNC-Duke game will get more viewers at literally any other time lol.

On another note, I'm going to be in Auburn for the Iron Bowl this year. No tickets ($$$$$), but tailgating.

ARE YOU KIDDING ME!?! The two rivalry games I want to see are on at the same time and the CBS game gets relegated to the little screen because ESPNU isn't available on it.

Really? ESPNU?
Man, I don't get that channel.
What the heck is the ACC Network playing if not 1 of the 2 games that determines who plays in the ACC Championship?

This is going to be great for the ACC.

I heard they're actually running their Law and Order reboot with Mike London as the chief

I'm planning on being there! Was at Lane North for 38-0, sitting on the hill. It was awesome (seeing our boys beat the snot out of the #newhoos).

This gif made my day.

I'm clueless, so how do you make something like that, frame by frame or can you track the movement some way?

So if you are keeping score at home, one 3:30 game at home and one on the road all season? Hokies need to come out strong next year and avoid this indignity.

UVA's had a horrible season and its time to put the nail in Mike London's coffin. While I know he will probably be back next year, another 38-0 style win could make it a tough off season for him.
