you would love that lip stick trophy....it's been called the vagina trophy as the football design on top looks similar.

Must not have posted during the season last year...

That being said, this board does tend to be optimistic and we do talk shit about some other fan bases (pretty much just 11W/OSU, which some OSU fans make fun of too so...). It's probably because the other boards are insufferably negative. The positive posters tend to be turned off by the negative mob mentality elsewhere (I have been a member of four other VT forums but can only stand it here) and thus come here. The fans with a more negative outlook tend to be turned off by the attitude here and end up elsewhere (generally 247). Hence the trash talk about other forums.

I agree with the thrust of what you are saying, but my understanding of QB play has evolved to where I think the most important thing is making the throw or play at the crucial time. Not all throws are of the same importance. A perfect pass for 5 yards on 2nd and 8 is good, but that 10 yard completion on 3rd and 7 that keeps the drive going - in the face of a defensive rush that knows you are throwing - is what separates good QB play from great QB play. In my opinion, Brewer made some really, really great throws at very, very crucial times in that game. On the other hand, a QB can have a high completion percentage, throw for a lot of yards, and not throw any picks, but if he misses on those crucial throws, he is not playing well. FWIW

I'm glad you came over to visit....Did even read my post or anyone else's? for every "they can't score" you had at least one rebuttal from on Ohio State fan saying this will be close. I didn't even give a prediction, I just said 35-17 was a reasonable score vs 59-0.

you guys are getting chippy with 3 1/2 weeks to go. I think someone's getting nervous.

As the game gets closer, anyone else have the feeling that certain people were volunteered to come over here, sign up, and post. Play nice for awhile, then the tone starts to change as we near Labor Day.

Seriously...

Had more than a few Bucknuts come over in recent days looking to start shit and then getting pissy when they aren't given the same home field treatment they'd receive on 11w.

You come talking trash about VT on a VT forum, what do you expect? Bring something to the table, we roll out the red carpet. Ask your fellow Buckeyes that have been around.

what does the rest of the ACC have to do with it either?

you can have scoreboard, bro (12 months ago)...I'll take the National Championship.

I don't think the problem was with how many running backs were used or how many carries each got over the course of the game. It was more about when they were substituted, whether one guy ever got a chance to get into a rhythm before he was taken out for the other guy. And there were times when it seemed some RBs had such specific roles that if they came into the game, everyone in the stadium knew the play call.

tell me again how you are a nice bunch of fans?
