I dont know about anyone else, but nervousness is just not remotely a feeling I have when thinking of this game. I have personally witnessed this situation more than one time for us: USC 2004, Alabama 2013, both of which were the #1 team. As well as many other terrible openers for us (most of which were at FED EX field, ewww). Basically, been there done that. We do not have a good record going against the number one team in the nation for our season opener. Period. So for me at least, this doesn't lead to nervousness. Quite the opposite. I am ecstatic to finally have the number 1 team, and defending champs, come to our house for a change. Instead of some neutral site. The whole day is going to be a spectacle, one which I cannot wait to participate in. I am very grounded in the reality of how the game may go. But nervous? Nahhh.
I know you're intending this as a joke, but it is painfully true.
Size doesn't matter, its all about the energy of the fans. And man do we have some pent up energy especially after a long offseason. And to the crowd noise comment, we have consistently been ranked in the top 10 toughest college football stadiums to play in.
The greeting there isn't "hello", it's "Roll Tide".
it's been called the vagina trophy as the football design on top looks similar.
A basic google image search will prove that statement wrong.
Listening to Andy Griffith speak makes me wish I'd held onto my Appalachian accent a little stronger.
Well, OSU IS 0-2 vs ACC last 2 yrs...so there's that
Found a comment on that thread that links to this thread about that thread.

Like this?
I was trying to find a good 'obvious troll is obvious' pic, but failed.
But yeah, he comes in with a "tell me again how you are such good fans" and then starts trying to immediately talk trash after, and yeah... doesn't come across very well, if you ask me.
Nowhere is this more true then the stretch of forsaken earth between Pensacola and New Orleans. The Bammers are damn near intolerable.
I wish it were like the WWF.
Who is holding "the belt" right now anyway?
To answer my own question: TCU.
You're certainly not losing legs on my account.
And if we're talking about the team's mindset now, don't worry, they'll be confident too.
Ease up, man. Sometimes house guests are pains in the ass and sometimes you still have to be a gracious host.
And he did it with a questionable OL (Teller wasn't playing early in the year), freshman WRs, freshman RBs, and a r-freshman TE. Oh, he also did not have a spring practice and had very little time to learn the offense and build chemistry with this teammates.
He has now had more time to digest the playbook, he has built chemistry with the skill positions, the skill positions have more experience now, and the OL should be better.
I'm not expecting Brewer to be a Peyton Manning or Tom Brady for the Hokies this year, but I do expect him to have a very solid year.
I'll just leave this here...
Howie's bro always comes through.
In fairness the only post I've seen you get downvoted on is where you essentially said we're not a nice bunch of fans. "Tell me again how VT is a nice bunch of fans". If you don't expect that to get a downvote, on a forum of VT fans, I'm not really sure what to tell you.
by the loss of turkey legs I'm getting, it certainly appears I'm getting under some skin
Don't shit on the floor of the house you're visiting and expect to be treated well by those who actually reside there.
there comes a point where overconfidence ultimately becomes self-delusion. i think our Buckeye friends have reached that territory already.
i'm so numb by their condescension/arrogance/(add your synonym here) at this point that i just ignore what's coming out of their mouths. when Labor Day arrives, it's game on...
Annoyed does not equal nervous. I think thats the misunderstanding, you seem to not know what nervous means.
agree, you're post was a good Buckeye response for sure.. so the comments below wasn't aimed at you or the other understanding OSU fans.. more for the 52-0 at halftime Bro's
I will be nervous...My team will be confident....
by the loss of turkey legs I'm getting, it certainly appears I'm getting under some skin. Which would be attributed to some nervousness, I suspect. Have a TL on me
