Clemson being absolutely classless. 35-10. 4th and 2 in the redzone and you go for it? Against an opponent that is clearly overmatched. Kick the field goal and stop being douches.

# | By the Advanced Numbers: Hokies Travel to North Carolina for Coastal Showdown Absolutely. Oh my Lord he's bad. His voice reminds me of a slightly more refined Donnie Baker...
There was one point they mentioned tonight, Loeffler never has consistency at QB. The one time he was finally able to have a QB for two years, Ohio State breaks him. So, I kind of feel bad for him on that front.
Great to hear!
I was surprised that we had a good stat like that.
That 8 game stretch started in 2010 with wins over #23 NC State and #24 Miami, included #20 GT and #24 UVA (38-0, bro) in 2011, #14 Miami in 2013, #8 Ohio State and #19 Duke in 2014. The loss in that stat is the 2012 Clemson game. And the game that keeps it from going further back was GT in 2009.
On the flip side, our home record against ranked teams in that stretch is probably worse than the opposite.
Everytime I watch a Loeffler offfense I just want to find Brewer and apologize to him. Just tell him, sorry cause I know it hurts to watch basically the same VT offense dominate. Throwing quick passes so the QB isn't getting destroyed every play. Running misdirection package plays that build on each-other. Simple plays that make the Qb's job easy. I really liked Brewer and I want him to know that he got screwed under Loeffler. He was agreat Hokie playing for the wrong OC.
Here. Got a degree just for parking in the Friday Center Lot.
But seriously, as soon as I parked my fellow Hokies invited me over to their RV compound for dinner, Clemson/BC, and home brew. This is home.

# | By the Advanced Numbers: Hokies Travel to North Carolina for Coastal Showdown Yep..I learned that, and that Mack Brown is really bad in the booth.
Praise the lord, it's not.
Used to do that body surfing.
I like that stat they showed how we're 7-1 our last 8 road games against ranked teams.
So far, Clemson doesn't strike me as unbeatable in terms of talent & execution.
But they are damn near untouchable in terms of penalties against, and getting flags called on their opponents that just don't seem to exist. Between the PI called on BC last drive of first half when the clemson guy ran through the DB, and the pretty clear push-off by the Clemson receiver on BC's DB to get separation for a TD...
Well let's just say I really don't want to play them w/ ACC officials calling the game.
Just got downvoted to hell on Reddit by the Clemson mob, but through orange glasses this is apparently a love tap to the chest.
I really, really, really hate Clemson.
watching at full speed that's certainly what it looked like
Ugh, no, this makes me dizzy
This game could very easily be 21-13 or 21-17 at half time. I think Clemson will adjust at halftime, but Boston College is challenging them pretty well through one half of football.

# | By the Advanced Numbers: Hokies Travel to North Carolina for Coastal Showdown Didn't think this needed separate topic and I wasn't sure which post to comment on. Mods feel free to move it if necessary.
Watching BC and Clemson. At the beginning of the half time show they were showing the ACC top 25 match ups. They didn't say a word about us, of course, but basically had a collective O-face over the UNC quarterback. I love it when Hokies are overlooked. I have a good feeling about this one.
Also, didn't know we were winners of three straight against ranked opponents on the road. Looks like that was Ohio State and Duke in 2014 and Miami in 2013. Here's to keeping yet another streak alive.
Bouleware shouldn't be playing football this week anyways. I can't believe they've just let him off the hook for literally trying to choke out Lamar Jackson on national television. Yes, football is a physical sport. But it isn't the UFC. Dude should have been suspended. From what I've seen that kid is a pretty dirty player.
Or at least call the personal foul...
Boulware is a dirty player. He was bad during the Louisville game as well. I thought the Cardinals might take him out. Hopefully, he gets a taste of his own medicine at some point.
After the choke hold last week and the forearm shiver tonight, Boulware is getting a rep as a dirty player.
I think there needs to be a clause in the targeting rule that says "punching or elbowing any player in the face is considered targeting." If that's not dirty, I don't know what is.
Looked closer to a clothesline
Either way that was such a weird/unecessary hit. Put your shoulder in his gut son.
i got a feeling...just got a feeling
