# | Hokies Set to Face Tar Heels' Dynamic Offense and Bend But Don't Break Defense Waddaya mean?
This is game that we were all but written off as having a chance and we damn near pulled it off.
Your glass needs to be half full, not half empty.
I titled the post God's Gift, because, really, who does that?
People do. It's their own choice. I agree with the person above - you wanted to call him out and then tried to protect yourself at the same time.
And I'm not sure why you're picking on him particularly. The entire team hasn't played consistently all year, and Bucky has come up big for us this past year a few times, and, as noted on a TD pass this game. He's playing TE and WR and is probably gassed because there's no one to relieve him, so you might want to cut him some slack.
^^This^^ My friend said the exact thing to me while at the game and i couldn't agree more
Had a few hours to digest the game.. looking back one thing that irks me ... a RB (usually McMillian) kept missing the blitz pick up .. that's unacceptable this late in the season

Similar to how you're calling me out? You don't know me, so cut it with the "emotional protection" garbage.
Anyway, I have nothing to hide. I don't see consistent effort from Hodges, and I think it hurts the team. I don't think it's on the same order as Marcus Davis from a few years ago, but it's still lack of effort.
I titled the post God's Gift, because, really, who does that? If you're going to get that tattoo, you'd sure better show up with effort to back it up.
I'm reminded of a saying, "When I do something right, no one remembers. When I do something wrong, no one forgets!".
We were a missed field goal from a win. Let's not forget that.
Yes... and Wes Worsham made my little guy's day today by giving him gloves worn by Carson Lydon during the VT/GT game. It was so unexpected, I never thought to take a picture.

# | Hokies Nearly Earn Storybook Lane Ending for Frank Beamer, Drop Home Finale to UNC 30-27 in OT UNC's offense has been a buzzsaw all year and VT's defense held them in check until the offense took matters into its own hands and started turning the ball over. The defense did enough to win that game today.
I think Loeffler knows too much about football for his own good. He's that Algebra II teacher that you had in school that just wrote shit on the chalkbooard, overhead, smartboard (depending on your age) and talked a mile a minute, while the whole class is like "WTF?"
Brewer is too confused sometimes out there to pull the trigger when he needs to.
I think you.g players would still benefit from the contact hours, but you're right that it makes a difference in a coaching change year. Still shouldn't turn it down though.
The second half tonight was the first time this season I've had fun watching a VT basketball game. Guys flying around, being tough and scrappy inside, hitting a few from long range, and playing some smothering defense. I'll take that all day long. Definitely something positive to build on going forward.
He's also playing out of position all year as the 3rd receiver vs. a true h-back or TE. We only have 3 people capable of running routes or catching passes so I suspect he's winded and frustrated.
Sounds to me like he's upset that his heisman hopes may have went out the window. Not classy.
Has urban meyer ever went undefeated and won the national championship? Just curious.
You know, I usually hate helping people move, but I would help this effort in a heartbeat. And I wouldn't even accept the obligatory beer.
It was nice of the defense to let Hood walk into the endzone untouched twice. That was the incentive for the offense to come alive and get us into the game.
Nobody was blameless in this one, and I am a little tired of people blaming the entire game on the offense.
Ding Ding Ding! Winner!
osu probably got eliminated from the playoffs today. They have been meh in a lot of games and just lost to the first good team they played this year.
Only if the extra practice is with the new regime.
I mean that sincerely. Does an extra month of practice with coaches that won't be there (at least offensively) do any good at all?
Brewers grit has taken him on a much nicer vacation than his talent can afford. That will suit him well in the future in any career he chooses.
We don't know how to win anymore. Period.
I think Buzz is starting to figure out rotations. Loved the lineup of Robinson, Allen, Clarke, Leday, Hamilton. He went with that group for awhile. Hamilton was a beast in the paint today.
Then call him out. Don't give yourself the emotional protection of "I don't like calling individual players out...." when your intention is to hate on him.
It seems like your post is caught in between. If you want to offer direct criticism of his play due to observations and results, then don't snark about the tattoo. If you want to snark about the tattoo, then don't disguise your hating as analysis. Just my opinion.
Bama literally may have zero top 25 wins when all is said and done, but the SEC is "great" or whatever the narrative is.
I'm sure they will find a way to keep LSU or Florida in the rankings even though Florida will get run next week by FSU

DB includes safeties :)
