for about as much as i dislike WVU and don't want anything good for them, it looks like they'd be the only team out of the B12 that would make sense for the ACC.

but since our Tobacco Road "overlords" are trying to maintain the prestige and status of the ACC, i'm content knowing that WVU won't fit their academic standards and won't go out of their way to lobby for WVU to join.

We call ourselves an engineering school? HOW DO WE NOT HAVE ONE ALREADY???

This. Looks. Awesome! I must say, though, our boys in the Stars and Stripes need to upgrade some of the gear on Megabot. In the short clip vs the bad guys, it looks like they've currently got the edge. Gaitlin guns? Son...you're fixin' for a fight!

Exactly. I kinda went on a Twitter rant about that last night. Upset that Phil Knight thinks that everything needs some kind of shade of neon green or yellow.

Japan, England, Germany the USA has beaten them ALL, war and soccer so let's go!

I think that is part of it. The other part of it is that our athletes are at a higher level than theirs when we play lower tier teams which seems to help keep our guys healthy. Games against high level competition tend to be more physical games which leads to and increase in injuries.

I live in Greenville, so I like the matchup. However, it is absurd how many times the game is played considering VT only plays certain conference opponents once in a blue moon. There are a lot of similarities in how devoted the fan bases are though.

And yeah, Parker's meh. But B's barbecue is the shit.

If in town come by Basil's. The Frank Beamer signed ball is front and center with the ECU memorabilia in the bar, and the restaurant is very Hokie friendly (know the owners...)

The two schools I would grant immediate acceptance to the ACC are the obvious ones, Texas and Oklahoma. Those two schools have storied athletic programs and would bring in huge TV markets with them. Personally I would prefer to see Oklahoma over Texas but it would be much better for the ACC to get Texas instead of Oklahoma.

Well that was something. England had the better chances and was who I wanted to face in the final. Oh well, looks like we got ourselves a rematch. If we play like we have the last two games we'll have three stars to celebrate the 4th of July weekend.

Ditto

England outplayed Japan almost the entire game. Japan did not deserve that win. I hope we decimate them

The problem with WVU is that I am not sure if their academic standards hold up to the rest of the ACC except for Louisville. That was a big factor on who the ACC wanted to invite to join and Louisville was given an exemption because their athletics are very good. WVU is not on the same level in terms of all athletic teams, not just football and basketball, so they aren't likely to get an exemption. All in all if WVU academics hold up to the standards of the rest of the ACC then they would probably get added.
