I came here to say this. Man were those roughing calls were frustrating over the last decade especially when they cost us a game... BSU comes to mind.
Ross/Marshalls/TJ Maxx. Never been in one that didn't have at least one pair, and they sell them for like $12 instead of $50.
Banner pic. They look like they just stepped off a porn shoot!
Baton Rouge >>>>>>>>>>>>>>Blacksburg
You don't think they will look? ESPN won't show us but those that know see what is going on!
To me, the only way we, or frankly anyone, beats Louisville is if Lamar ain't playing. Dude is the real deal. I'm not wishing him ill, as I'm definitely on the LJ hype train, but objectively, I don't think we beat Louisville if he's active.
Fuente makes more than Frank.
It's just kind of a thing with coaching changes at major programs.

# | Virginia Tech Rights the Ship Against East Carolina, Beats the Pirates 54-17 The block by Teller on the Evans run was a great football play produced by great effort. Go Hokies!!
UF and UT agree
He was working the L1 button there at the end.
A top-10 kind of mediocre.
I'm not sure what the definition of garbage time is, but the beginning of the 2nd half with all starters on the field is definitely not garbage time. If one team can score X amount of points in the first half, then the other team can score X amount of points in the second half.
I actually don't think Bucky is gone. He's not ready yet. Ford, yeah, he's gone. But not Bucky if he knows what's best for him.
I'd rather think that this team could beat Louisville WITH Jackson, and not think of him getting injured... I hate to think of gaining based on someone else's misfortune.
How mediocre is Wisconsin though? They beat the brakes off Mich State.
First they cancelled VikingQuest, then Entourage ended, now this. When will Johnny Drama catch a break?

# | Ask TKP: A Quarter of the way through the 2016 season, have your expectations changed? 
I would imagine that Fu's offense would have a great psychological benefit on the D and ST. The D can be aggressive, and when they give up that occasional TD, the Fu offense can reciprocate. Without fear of offensive futility, the D will be more aggressive, leading to more sacks, TFL, fumbles, and interceptions.
It also has a cascading effect. If the VT goes up a few scores, the opposing offense starts taking more risks, leading to bigger Defensive plays.
The same could be said for the special teams. A perfect example would be the sack on that fake punt this past weekend.
My expectations were ACCCG appearance and 10 wins. Now I can stand behind that with actual supporting evidence and not just a combination of bourbon and homerism. Would not be surprised to hit 10 wins before Thanksgiving. And hell, if Lamar Jackson gets injured, we'd even have a shot at winning the ACC. Playoffs are still possible.
Yep good ole product placement
This is more than deserved. When LSU played Wisconsin, a mediocre team they absolutely should have beaten, it was plainly clear that Cam Cameron didn't have a damn clue about how to make that offense successful. Miles has been on the hot seat for years and, in hindsight, couldn't maintain the momentum that Saban brought to that school.
Side note, Orgeron is going to be a great head coach. LSU will offer him the full time gig after the season is over.
And I think he'll hire recently-fired Gus Malzahn as his OC in the off season.
Book it

# | Virginia Tech Rights the Ship Against East Carolina, Beats the Pirates 54-17 Agreed on all counts... plus he's made plays with his feet on several occasions. I'll take what he brings and be happy.
Houston will be going to the SEC. Book it
That last cut back I was screaming "ENDZONE'S THAT WAY FOOL!!!" Thankfully the guy who tackled him pushed him in.
I thought 8-4 was a realistic improvement, but based on what I've seen so far there's no reason to think 10 wins isn't possible. We've crushed teams in the last two weeks that have given us fits recently. Additionally, we gave Tennessee that game with those fumbles... who knows what happens if we hold on the ball in that game.
Another factor though is how our opponents look, UNC still has no D, Pitt hasn't lived up to the hype, and Notre Dame is a dumpster fire right now. Miami however looks to be legit but hasn't played much competition as of yet. If we can just keep improving and cleaning up the little things, I don't see any reason we can't retake the Coastal this year.

Sorry, thought he was at East Washington for some strange reason.
