I agree with both assessments. I just think for a large chunk of the fanbase, it got to be "Herbie hates us!" or "He/They like to talk us up and then tear us down as soon as we lose!"

But think about the VT games he's called since 2006, when Saturday Night Football started -- 2009 vs Alabama, 2010 vs Boise State, 2015 vs Ohio State. People notice a trend. But he's not a bad luck charm for us.

UNC grads will incorrectly claim another anagram is Sad Trombone, but even though they are wrong, they are right.

Also, you'll need to get a shot of penicillin and use this tiny comb.

I know nothing about offensive stats and rankings. But, just in my gut, I guess I'm surprised we aren't ranked higher than that.

I have the same feeling about Herbie. He was a believer for a long time....then probably got tired of us losing in those primetime opportunities.

Also, he now lives here in Brentwood, TN -- so, my kids go to school with his. Hard for me to dislike him.

Dino Babers gets into arguments about which gas station has better food.

I watched that game (because I live in Wyoming), it was actually pretty good to watch. The UW team is really young, but their JUCO QB transfer has looked pretty darn good this year. Those guys went 2-10 last year, but I think everyone out here is seeing why they got Craig Bohl (old NDSU coach). Next year I wouldn't be surprised at all for UW to crack the top 25 and win the MWC, unfortunately after that Bohl is probably moving on to bigger and better things.

Last time I checked football is an outdoor sport, for the most part, played in the fall and winter. Rain, wind, sun, snow that's called the outdoors. This isn't arenaball, or basketball, or ping pong, or whatever indoor sports you can think of. Man up or go the f@@k home with your feelings hurt and your team spanked.

I don't watch a lot, so I'm sure I've missed a lot, but I never got the feeling he disliked us. He seemed more disappointed in us for not reaching our potential so many seasons in a row, because he had grown to like us and Beamer especially.

Come on, people. If you're getting married in football season, at least pick a week where your team is playing an away game on Thursday or on a bye.

FTFY.

Check on me if the Hokies manage to win the next three games. I'll not only hop on the Hype Train, I'll conduct that motherfucker into outer space.
