# | Bitter blog - ESPN coming to Blacksburg for Ohio State game (but not Lee Corso) Now all we need is all maroon everything and Metallica to play live....
Virginia Tech's official announcement doesn't say anything about it being a College Football Countdown special... Just that ESPN College GameDay is headed to Blacksburg for a 7th time...
ESPN's College GameDay Returns to Blacksburg
If this is only a quick thing without fan involvement, they haven't informed us, yet.
I hope this isn't a case of VT or ESPN (or both) just loosely throwing around "College Gameday" and their panel and logo just because some combination of ESPN personalities are coming. If Corso, Herbstreit, and the full crew aren't there for the full show with the headgear selection, it's not College Gameday. Hopefully we get some clarification. Really excited that they will be coming in some format.
Give him a break. He's one of Uncle Sam's Misguided Children. As a bubble head, I've learned to speak slowly, clearly and not make any sudden movements around them.
Go Navy...
Ok, some Hokie, when they see Desmond, needs to yell "Hey, Desmond, Michigan sucks"
I'm glad this game is getting highlighted, it's great for both schools and programs.
Yup. That tweet will probably haunt 12 Gauge for a while; which is why I am glad I was in school when the only people who heard you were other students and probably too drunk to remember it the next day.
I would expect Foster to add some new wrinkles but I doubt he would install a whole new defensive scheme , especially just for us. He'll need to deal with a much more experienced QB who has the confidence of the coaches to be more aggressive; as well as some new wrinkles in our offensive capabilities and some areas where we are still questionable. I'd expect him to adapt to what he thinks we'll bring and go from there.
Of course, I am an OSU homer so I see Decker's comments in a different light, as a player who got beat last year, is itching for a rematch and saying he'll be ready; rather than a slight or dismissal of VT's team.
You expected correctly, good sir!
we all knew they would go to Jerry World.. so to get all that stuff packed up and all the way from Arlington to Blacksburg would be tough. 16 + hour drive on a crazy labor day weekend ick.
Glad they're doing some sort of rendition for our game though
I mean -- they got 3 five stars to go along with their 20 two stars. Not that I care about stars that much, but can you say they recruited well if the average is still relatively low? Seems like the 5-stars are the outliers and not the norm.
THE HYPE TRAIN CONTINUES TO GAIN MOMENTUM.
YOU CANNOT STOP THE HYPE TRAIN.
EDIT: THE HYPE TRAIN DESERVES ALL CAPS.

My face after watching this.....

# | Special Edition of ESPN's College GameDay is Coming to Blacksburg on Labor Day CHOOO CHOOO BITCHES!
Sand's decision to close on Labor Day for "unannounced events" is much clearer now. How did we not wildly speculate about this happening after the announcement 2 weeks ago?
"This year several major events will be held on campus including a nationally televised football game at 8 p.m. Other as yet unannounced major events may also add significantly to campus traffic loads."
Thats some broken ribs right there.
Failed to mention, other notables in the 90 - 100 range is Justin Thomas QB GT (92) and Brad Kaaya QB Miami (97).
The music selection was perfect this year.
Not quite right, Bleacher Report notification
That's what I'm thinking...
Plus, the VT Athletics twitter account is putting out info with the College GameDay logo plastered on it as if we're gettin full blown GameDay. It really does look like there will be a big event with them.
So much conflicting info. The press release says "College Football Countdown" with just Pollack, Howard, and Davis. But then the official College Gameday twitter says:
Don't worry, @VT_Football -- we didn't forget about you because it's on Monday. We'll be in Blacksburg this Labor Day for Ohio State!— College GameDay (@CollegeGameDay) August 3, 2015
"College Football Countdown" is not "College Gameday." Maybe gameday earlier in the day and countdown closer to kickoff?
Corso's trying to avoid lightning striking twice.
Hokies are hoping that it does.
OSU can have the day, I want VT to win the night.

More News looks like they'll only be here 1 hour before the game so a mini mini gameday. but still so excite

Guess his car insurance wouldn't cover a trip to Blacksburg again.
