Just watched the Craig vs Debo fight from Friday where Brad Kaayas mom Felicia got man handled by Debo and then Craig beat him up haha. Miami is going to be Felicia and Virginia Tech is going to be Debo in 2 Thursdays from now. If the game was played on Friday as bad as I hate Friday games it would be so fitting!

It was a great fun with those teams of the late 70's. I still remember "Henson's Heave" and McGuire's Marquette team that won the NCAA play.

Hokies have opened as a 17 point favorite against Syracuse

edit: moved to 20 points now

Yep. And the looseness and swagger of this D (and the improved looseness and swagger of this TKP'er watching this D, come to think of it) is 100% due to the fact that they no longer have to shut teams out. It's crazy - for the first time in years, I'm not nearly as concerned with the number they put up.

It'll be a good measuring stick for our DBs, this game. I am still not clear if we're good there; I know our numbers look great. I KNOW, man. But, I mean:

they handled Liberty,
lost several costly battles vs the Vols,
did BC even throw the ball?,
played well but got absolutely gashed by ECU a few times (and had several lucky drops and penalties),
and a game in a hurricane.

An away game - in a dome - vs a heavy vertical passing scheme? I'm not at all worried about the offense. Sounds like, if anything, a State Of The Defense game to me.

This is a huge deal. We are an injury away from serious trouble at DT next year if we don't get some help (T-Fr or a R-Fr steps up)

University offices will be closing at 2 for the game. The North End parking garage will be open for faculty/staff permits, but it sounds like those lots have to be empty by 3 anyway.

I'm thinking that your best bet would find a place off campus where you can just park on the street. I know for games last year, I ended up parking in the Draper Rd. neighborhoods on the street, and that never seemed to be a problem.

Assuming we don't get a DT in this class and we have Settle, Walker, Sobczak, and Hewitt next year do we see Mihota or Fullwood go to DT or hope that Clay Dean or Dalton Rowe steps up? The depth isn't as deep once Baron and Williams are gone. I'd hate to see Mihota go to DT because he is excellent at DE in my opinion, and Fullwood does anyone know what is up with him?

Every game could be considered a trap game at this point except the Miami game.

I know it's also a prescription for people with ADHD. Would be interested to know if he's diagnosed with that, and if so, whether it warrants a dismissal from the team? I know nothing about drug policies, so anybody who is knowledgeable on the subject, please enlighten me.
