Let's get wet
Hokies are undefeated!
Anybody heard Woodson's status?
Can the Recruiting Coordinator spar in practices?
Pulled into Atlanta an hour ago. Grabbing brews at Atlantucky Brewery outside the stadium. Crowd here is probably 3:1 USCe.
I just hope both teams have fun.
We have to exorcise some demons and win this one. If we lose to Shane, the narrative will be that this program can never escape the shadow of the Beamers and its glory days are in the past. A win helps put a lot of that, and the whole "Shane was too good for VT," garbage to rest.
God forbid SC blocks a punt or field goal and we have to hear about a role reversal of Beamer Ball.
I much prefer that one. Was never really a fan of the Hokie Bird look. The clean VT is more my style.
Have the recorder set as there is a family thing that might spill over into the start of the game. I'll probably log back in before turning it on so people can let me know if I should watch the recording or not.
I have no idea what to expect.
Regardless of this game, and at 75 yrs old, if I die of liver failure at anytime, I will guarantee the Hokies have had a lot to do with it.
24-21 good guys. Book it.
0-0 record. Best time of the year. Let's go Hokies.
The changes along SCs DL lead me to believe that we might be able to establish a ball control running attack. Some quick hitters in the passing game to limit SCs secondary experience and the occasional long ball to keep their safeties honest should help.
Limit SC on offense as best as possible.
Love is Love
VT 19-17
I'm with ya on 24-20 or 27-24. Just don't know which side we'll be on.
FTFY-
I hope everyone who went has been having fun in Atlanta. The Benz is a great place to see WIN a game.
VTs chance to win is by playing a methodical ball-control offense.
I don't see us scoring 30+ without significant help.
I have huge doubts that our unproven Tackles can protect Drones in passing situations.
The Rushing game is the key. If we can run the ball efficiently and control possession we can be competitive. If we can stop USC and their 9th Year Senior RB (maybe his arthritis will be flaring today?) then it could be a tight game. If neither of those things happen, it could be ugly.
With the above said, I see the Defensive changes keeping them guessing for a while and the game close at Half but the O not being able to sustain drives and settling for too many FG.
VT 16 - USCe 27
But thats their offense amd has been since Chad Morris left. I dont think Trevor ever made a clutch throw, he picked up big downs with his feet running away from the defenders
reffing was extremely suspect towards the end. Hokie wing got taken out from behind when he had a clear run to the goal and no card. Then with 2:30 left, ball bounced in front of the Hokie goal. Tech defender went to kick and Marshall player went to head it and looked to me like the Tech guy kicked it and then it hit the Marshall player's head and he went down in just sheer agony. They reviewed it and gave a PK which led to the tie
SC wins 34-13.
Updated stats going into tonight's SC/VT Game - SEC is 13-2 on the weekend.
Neither team has an elite offense, so especially in Game 1, I don't see either hitting 30. Guessing we end up on the wrong end of 24-20.


This is a weird fanbase.
