Speaking of which, as mentioned above, I really hope we're beating UNC so badly that Jack Click gets some more time at QB - #ClicksOutForHarambe.

As a person who has some sweet rain gear, and knows that scalpers will be dropping tix like hot cakes on Saturday, I MAY be there.

I'm also a person who has a wife who doesn't think its a good idea, and as this person, I need to keep softening up said wife for a Bro trip to the ACCCG IF the Hokies win the Coastal.

A pasty is a baked pastry, a traditional variety of which is particularly associated with Cornwall, in the United Kingdom. It is made by placing an uncooked filling, typically meat and vegetables, on one half of a flat shortcrust pastry circle, folding the pastry in half to wrap the filling in a semicircle and crimping the curved edge to form a seal before baking.

As a db and wr I felt that it was easier to run a route rather than defend a receiver. As a receiver you know exactly where you will be going where as a defender you have to make quick reactions which is where you see a lot of loose footing and players falling down.

Maybe a "one at a time" promotion? They were showing up at various landmarks for several weeks and giving them away to whoever showed up.

I got mine in the mail by responding to a Twitter contest ("...first fifty replies...").

Someone said at the time you could walk into one of the offices on campus and pick them up (don't know which one, had to do with alumni or outreach or something).

A note on why S&P+ still doesn't like our offense that much (besides a couple of weak opponents):
It's still filtering out preseason predictions. I believe it's not until we're 7 games in that rankings are based solely on this season's play. If I remember correctly, we were projected to be something in the 80s-90s* in S&P+ offense, which should continue to drag our ranking down for the next few weeks.

* One weakness of S&P+ I've seen Bill Connelly note is that it doesn't account for coaching changes very well, so we were basically projected as if we still had Loeffler at coordinator.

Hey french, pretty certain weather will be a big impact this game, do you think it flips the cards in either teams favor to increase difficulties in the passing game? I mean it seems like both offenses are reliant on a ton of moving pieces and misdirection, and if you dont have to respect the throw as much due to wind who do you think that helps? Also please correct me if im totally wrong on weathers impacts

I think the speed option is going to be crucial. Fuente has been setting up the option look and misdirection off the option all season. If UNC isn't disciplined on D, Fu and Corny are going to drink the fuck out of UNC's milkshake.
