Scottie Montgomery thinks the mascot should look more like a modern day Pirate:
I'm still nervous about this game
I think ECU is, at worst, the second best team we will have played to date. And we all know what happened in Bristol. I'm worried the BC game is a red herring. That game was a nightmarish disaster for them. Their offense couldn't move the ball (which isn't surprising) and as a result their defense got gassed. I don't think it'll look as easy for us again this season. I would love to be wrong.
ECU is going to get points. What I'm interested in seeing is how this team responds to adversity. At the first sign of trouble in Bristol this team completely crumbled. When ECU scores (and they will) I want to see our team come out and execute like they did against BC..and not crumble under the pressure. But until I actually see this team bounce back from some adversity against a good team I'm not going to have tons of confidence. I'm cautiously optimistic this team can beat ECU. I just hope we don't have to get the perfect storm to make it happen.
Teddy Bridgewater? Dude was a pocket passer.... Vince Young is probably the other comparison
yes.....hold all my calls for today.
God I miss those unis...
This ^^^^^ for me too!
Talk about being spoiled silly!!! Going from watching Al Clark then MV7 the following year, all of us didn't know MV7 would lead us to the the NC. Out of my roomates and I, three of us got tickets. I was the only one who kept mine and went to the NC. What a memory at 20 years old! Priceless!!
Oh, had Shyrone Stith remained healthy that game and not out for the game during the 1st quarter, there might have been a different ending. Our run game sufferred with him out.
There's already been an article written on this
I'm psychologically conditioned to dread and loathe this game. Do I have a little bit more optimism than past years? Yes. But I'm still not going to be breathing easy until the clock strikes 0:00 with the good guys ahead.
Scottie Montgomery is actually a Star Trek fan. He "can't get no power."
which is amazing because Virginia drivers aren't all that good
*source-I am one
I agree that it isn't his fault, but the WRs have also made some catches over DBs that could have just as easily been INTs. It's part of the game to get INTs that aren't your fault and get away with some that probably could have easily been INTs.
Think it's a bit early (3 games, 2 against real opponents) to say if it's broke or not. Take away the 1 long run against UTjr and the #s don't look as good.
With Tmac's long run 143 carries for 615 yards and a 4.3 YPC average.
Without 142 carries for 3.8 ypc average.
2015 545 carries for 2071 yards and a 3.8 ypc average just for another reference point.
At work early. I really needed a laugh diversion. You bright boys made that possible. Legs to all. BTW, I don't care what scUM wears, they are still convicts.
Because recruiting.
Co-sign. Maryland drivers make Virginia drivers all look professionally trained.
Agreed. This is how you prevent great talents from becoming their own worst enemy.
I don't think Cam was ever willfully neglecting any part of his game. But,
Cough (Marcus Davis) Cough.
I like our solid color jerseys Late 90s Early 2000s. I am not a big fan of our shoulder stripes. THIS is the VT uniform I think strikes fear in the hearts of men. #myfavuni
Great article Ryan. I got a feeling, that this team is going to approach the ECU a little differently than the past. VT wins by 3 touchdowns and the Fuente era is off and running and passing.
That's OK, we got a whole season
I dig em. And not gonna lie, never realized they are an Adidas school...am I way behind or just a little behind?
Eddie Royal has quietly put together a very solid NFL career. Too bad he's been stuck with Cutler and Rivers. There are worse QBs to play with but he'd be a touchdown scoring machine with Tom Brady. I know everyone plays well in New England but Royal just seems like a perfect fit for that system.
Shades of Tyrone Prothro
They showed it on Monday night football in the Mossed Up section

They're on the schedule. We're playing them. Prepare no other way than to beat them.
