# | Hokies Use Preseason Practice to Retool the Secondary in the Wake of CJ Reavis' Dismissal Bofa what?
Those don't detract from the show because they're completely relevant. The GIFs and memes are usually not and filled with inside jokes. Most mentions of Sam Rogers gets a lengthy offshoot thread with what is basically a rehashing of Chuck Norris jokes.
If a GIF gets posted another is in response and this continues ad nauseum. It detracts from the conversation at times because every comment section has giant spurts of them that you have to scroll through and find the real comments sandwiched between them.
I'm not saying they should go away, they just get entirely too excessive sometimes. It's mostly an issue with larger posts and makes following the thread difficult at times. That's a reason some people, and me at times, stay away from the comments.
Was told today by the ticket office that there are only around a dozen mini plan seats left. South endzone.
The most unforgivable thing is the use of the term 'V-Tech.' Who the fuck is V-Tech!?

# | Eleven Warriors is just as delusional today as it ever was. Nervous? What the hell do we have to be nervous about?
IF we wind up losing we will have lost to the defending national champions and the series will be even. Nothing to hang our heads about. If anOSU loses the national headlines will be about how Urban can't best Bud and Frank even if they are world beating national champs and how they lost to a team that barely made a bowl last season.
You say we're nervous? To that, I laugh in your face. We don't really have much to lose by losing, anOSU on the other hand...
I'm watching red zone so I can see any "big" plays or when one game goes to commercial they cut in.
I've got the skins game, I'll try and keep an eye out for Kyshoen.
K. Fuller, E. Royal and W. Montgomery all starting for Chicago. Royal has a rec and Fuller has at least one tackle.
I hope you find the same experience if you come to Lane this year, and if you don't I hope you don't hold it against the fanbase as a whole.
I agree that people are people. Most fans are courteous. There's just something about hiding behind a screen that brings out the worst. I enjoy talking to other fans at games though.

# | New article on ACC defensive Heisman candidates. 2 Hokies listed Definitely. Good find, thanks for sharing.
My thoughts too, just thought it was interesting.
Wow, 19 tds. I didn't remember he was that effective.
Well said. One of my favorite takeaways from last year was hearing the chatter here about how great the OSU fans were. Hope we can return the favor. Two good teams, two great fan bases.
You are right on in your assessment, as Foster has made it clear that his gameplan is to stop the run and make you beat one on one matchups in the passing game. It's a high risk high reward strategy. We have really struggled in the past with mobile quarterbacks running on broken plays. This is typically set up by a threat in the passing game running all the defenders off in man coverage. If you guys can establish a consistent run threat and score on a few big plays, it could be a long night for the Hokies. It will be interesting to see how it plays out. No doubt your offense if dangerous as hell. We'll have to execute efficiently and limit mistakes to pull out the W. If you guys jump on us early I could see you pulling away. If we hang in there and prove we can match up who knows. It's a tough one to predict. Hopefully we can all shake hands afterward and congratulate a good game regardless.
I hear you. There are those guys who are "F you, F your team, and F everyone who looks like you or your team."
But my experience is that if you are courteous and respectful, there are plenty of people on almost every forum who love CFB like you, and it can be very fun and informative. I've made some great friends over the years. I got invited to a Longhorn forum back in 07 (I think), and when I flew to Austin to watch Ohio State play Texas the next year, those guys fed me like I have never been fed before, they made me cancel my hotel, and then they fought over who would take me home and take me back to the airport. We had a great time - especially me. The Bucks won that one. :) But we are all still great friends, and I've had similar experiences with a variety of other fan bases.
I've found that people are people, in the good and bad sense, no matter where you go.
It's the final countdown
Oh, I wasn't joking.
Wow there are as many people at the Redskins game as their is at the Loluva spring game!

# | New article on ACC defensive Heisman candidates. 2 Hokies listed Agreed. Good article, but it should have just been about potential Bednarik award winners.
I mean no defensive player is going to win a heisman in this day and age unless they have a significant impact on offense as well. If Suh can't win it, no-one will.
Agreed. We need football. And some crow and toothpicks for the unfortunate losing fanbase (crosses fingers...)
He was adequate. I think he improved, but that's a gut feeling more than a stat I can give you. The truth is Urban doesn't attempt many FG's anyway. I don't remember Neurenberger being put in a situation where he had to hit a crucial 43 yarder. You would expect a sophomore to be better than a true freshman. We'll see - or maybe we won't. If the choice is going for it or kicking a 43 yard FG, Urban almost always goes for the first down - but maybe he did that because he didn't trust the kicker.
Regardless, I don't think the kicker will be a factor. Ohio State comes into this year's game with few Q marks on offense. The VT defense last year could focus on pressuring a rFr QB in his 2nd game and stopping up running lanes trying to be opened by a suspect OL and an unproven RB - and none of the receiving corps caused any great concern. This year there are many places they will have to pay attention to, and that creates an entirely different challenge and will result in playing differently. I think they will be aggressive and pressure, especially when the down and distance dictates, but I also think the number of threats on the field will cause them to play less risky on down and distance that doesn't favor them. If I were Foster (and clearly I'm not) I would focus on stopping the RB and QB run and take my chances with the passing game.
After reading this thread I came to this:
College football fans are very passionate. An adverse opinion about your team will likely ruffle some feathers, even if you know it might be true. I welcome all level headed Buckeyes to the site, but the arguments here are the exact reason why I don't visit other teams' fan sites.
