This UVA team is going to beat us so badly in November. It's going to be absolutely ugly if you're a VT fan.
We're going to find out that he was one of the most overrated overhyped QB's ever. His high school was really low level of competition and he wasn't putting up insane stats.
The wheels are falling off. 27-21 after the punt block td for the lions
If he is noticeably worse than Drones to this staff then he definitely shouldn't be on the field but probably worth a game to see how bad it is
I watched the game in delayed fashion. Never caught up to live action.
IMO, the really big head scratcher on the coaches was the pass play calls. Once again, way too many.
Outside of that, the PLAYERS gifted WF 17 pts. The ridiculous INT on our first possession from Drones set the all too familiar Dumbshit Party Train. 3pt FG for WF.
Two horrible 1H penalties kept WF drives alive and gifted WF 2 TD's. These go so far above and beyond discipline. These penalties were just so fucking dumb. Dumb Dumb Dumb. Can't fix stupid. 14 pts WF
The ST covered center penalty, though bullshit call, gave WF 3 pts. That's 20 total points gifted to WF. 17 from VT and 3 from the Ref.
Our inability to gain 3 yards for a TD after that awesome INT. We lost 4 pts there.
You see, the PLAYERS couldn't execute. This loss is on them and not Monty. Now, the last drive in the 1H. That was on the coaches, but the game was on the players.
To boot the amount of PI not called on WF was ridiculous. There were a number of in your face holds too that weren't flagged by the refs. Those didn't cost us the game but provided a very unforgiving field to play on.
This is yet another WOULDA COULDA SHOULDA game and IM FUCKING TIRED OF WATCHING THEM.
Man, it will be disappointing if the Yanks don't go and win it all, but at least no one can take that absolutely beastly performance from Schlittler away. That was legitimately one of the best outings ever and it came from a rookie making his postseason debut.
Arch Manning looks worse than Drones today
Had 63 yards passing in 1st half
Good start to the half. Penn State getting a big first down throw, which UCLA punched out and recovered for their first recovery of the year.
That's the place where I knew we deserved to not win. If you get the ball that close in and don't score a TD, then you kind of threw all of the other stuff out the window in a game this tight.
A gimme. And also, somehow, a "signature win" too. Figure that out
Is Pop Watson in witness protection?
The last 3 games have been way better than the first 3....
Just not going to get worked up over things as we are as good as I could have reasonably hoped for. Let's try and get a couple more wins this season and just build for the future.
100% agreement. I think we should have won this game but at this point I'm looking more at being competitive in every game, since I think we're the gimmie on everyone else's schedules.
This season is sunk. I think everyone can agree on that. Every coach in Blacksburg has to know this is their last season at VT. They can't possibly think there's any reasonable path to them being here again next season.
With that said, why the hell are these coaches not trotting out other qb options? Drones ain't it. He's had plenty of opportunities and all he's done is prove he's not capable at this level. I want to see someone else commanding the offense next week. The coaches literally have nothing to lose. Drones isn't getting any better... Time to give someone else a shot
Really thought we were going to pull this out after the IBM interception. Then we get stuffed and lose all momentum. Even then had plenty of chances to put this one in the win column.
Hopefully UCLA is able to hold on for another half of it
Sorry, no. My wife made them but it's been a couple of decades since then. I think the main thing is don't scrimp on the ingredients. No healthier shortcuts, or calorie cutter changes. Look at a bunch of recipes, but the topping is usually cheese, and basil a main ingredient.
The center was definitely covered.
Love seeing Pry's buddy dear old James getting what was coming to him.
Obviously disappointed with losing a winnable game, derailed by unnecessary penalties the way that it was. But at least there were moments of high effort to keep the game close to the end, so still better than ODU and above my expectations since then. Still think this team can win a few more games this season if they're able to stay focused, but very much agree with the sentiment of the thread that I'm more engaged with the coaching search than the results the rest of the way this year.
27-7 at half for UCLA. Honestly, it's the most shocking score I've seen so far this week.
Defenses now know all they have to do to shut us down is sell out to stop the run. Just blow up the line as a blitz and Drones can't handle it, and we just refuse to run to the outside.
After ODU, I figured we go 2-10, and 1-11 was absolutely on the table. Considered 3-9 to be a reach. Montgomery did a lousy job today and the players did a lousy job, but I'm not going to jump all over Montgmery. Look, we are a bad team. ODU was (hopefully) the bottom. The last 3 games have been way better than the first 3. Yes, I want a better coach and I want better/more prepared/more disciplined players. But it's not like any of us could have seriously expected this team to win 2 of 3 games after ODU.
Just not going to get worked up over things as we are as good as I could have reasonably hoped for. Let's try and get a couple more wins this season and just build for the future.

Pry watching this game from home with a tear in his eye
Why the hell did Montgomery accept the penalty that made it 3rd and 15 for WF when the result of the play would have been 4th and 5? Force them to kick the field goal, don't give them another down when backing them up 10 yards doesn't take them out of FG range. Next play, stupid penalty gives them a first down and they score a TD.
WF head coach had the same choice later in the game and declined it to force VT to kick the FG. Smart coaching beats dumb coaching every time.
Their QB couldn't hit the broad side of a barn. This game was extremely winnable.
