You best hope the Curry family doesnt read this... But, I 98% agree, my 2% goes to the idea that it is a work in progress. The playoff changes the cupcake schedule (for the better), especially for the ACC, Big12, and PAC12. We will finally be rewarded for scheduling challenging games rather than the hurt we felt from Bama and Boise. We have a good head start into the next 5-10 years. Excited about the "reevaluation every week" to make sure the best teams are in the playoff. anOSU was a product of that last season.

This is somewhat related, I spoke at length with Jeff King's father the past week and he stated that Jeff is currently working for the Bears as a scout! He will always be one of my favorite Hokies! And thought yall might like to know what he is up to.

Bud, I'm from Carolina originally, and still have a State pennant that was given to me by my late father. I'm all for regional ACC games. My point is this: right now Clemson and FSU are considered the darlings of our conference. There are kids on the roster today, that will never play FSU, Clemson or Louisville. The administration needs to find a way to ink some more home/home games with other Big 5 schools. Marketing Duke, State and Pitt isn't going to reinvigorate a disenchanted fan base. OSU, Wisconsin, PSU, any SEC school...that will put butts in seats. And putting butts in seats is what keeps the lights on. Yes, at one time we did play JMU, Rhode Island, and The University of Slippery Rock...or whomever. But that was then. This is now, and comparing the two is irrelevant. This team, school, and coaching staff has been to the mountain top, has flirted with a summit, and continue to knock on the door. Liberty on our schedule is plain silly. Expectations have changed.

Nice shot.

But it should be pointed out that this wasn't anything special. Skipper is ALWAYS in the stadium for the national anthem.

Hell I have an awesome framed picture of a game from 2013 right at the moment it goes off. You have the smoke shooting out, the HT's spelling out "VPI" and a WW2 B-25 bomber right over the stadium.

Long-time listener, first time caller. Glad to finally be "official" here on TKP. See y'all at the tailgate on Labor Day. Go Hokies! Beat Ohio State.
