*JR QB, but the point stands, he led the NCAA in passing last year.
Thoroughly agree. The faithful Hokies were crazy today and early on we (i think) caused some false starts I knew the game was gonna be a good one, but I haven't gone this crazy at Lane since we played Miami in 2011.
Unfortunately, Beamer's resume also consists of sticking with an underperforming offensive coordinator for waaaaay too long.
This game was by far the best of the weekend.
I'm not trying to troll here, but you do realize it's germs and not exposure to wet and cold conditions that get a person sick. Otherwise I would have spent my entire time walking through the NC woods in the Marine Corps with the sniffles.
Unrelated: I'm in love with Aubrey plaza.
I think we all know that this isn't a championship team. This sure as hell hasn't looked like a conference or division champion either.
The defense has been great. The offense has been atrocious...there's not a whole lot further to sink on that side of the ball. Realistically if they change QB's and it backfires, we make the Russell Athletic Bowl instead of the Chik-Fil-A bowl. If Leal saw meaningful snaps and handles himself well, we would be better set up for next year unless Bucky makes some huge strides.
He owned it today. 9 tackles, 1.5 for loss, 1.5 sacks, 3 hurries. Most important, the forced fumble to 311 pound blur.
...? I think you mean TT? Tyrod Taylor?
If you want to get technical about the definition of outliers, yes, you are correct. I was just using the term in the broader sense that one thing is quite different than the rest.
Part of what makes McCarron great is that he doesn't make those mistakes. To say that he would be a McCarron clone is absurd. Yes, his stats would look better if he had an Amari Cooper to throw to. But that wouldn't change the staring down of WR's. The ill-advised throws into double/triple coverage. The balls thrown ten feet short/over the WR's head that have plagued LT for much of his career.
Ya. I was in that section in NEZ on East side and I want to give it up to the group of guys who were leading us into battle. Especially because I'm 95% sure it was a Frat and I'll be the first to admit that I've bashed Greeks for not being good fans. So for any of you out there, hats off to you, you helped make it as loud as we could make it
If we see the alternative we probably lose a game we wouldn't with Logan.
I know there's the alternative that we win a game we wouldn't too but our coaching staff obviously thinks that's not the case.
If the Braves ever draft a QB as douchy as Matt Ryan who is responsible for ruining the best game I've ever been to as well as keeping Tech out of a national championship because of some lucky backyard football shit...
Trust me. I'll stop rooting for the Braves.
The beatings will continue until morale improves.
Ive always loved playing with Logan, Byrn said. Hes going to put all 260 pounds on the line every single play. Hes the ultimate competitor. If he has a bad pass or a bad throw, he doesnt know any better than to go out and work his hardest and do whatever he can to win.
Hes definitely resilient, for sure.

HOOAH!
Watch the Bama game tape
I dont agree about Tahj Boyd...I think he is a product of the system he is in and I dont think he would be as good at VT or at best he would have been another TT....of course we will never know
Logan's completions were 18 out of 34 and Catos were 19 out of 42...Logan has the better completion %. I personally dont mind the picks because he is taking chances and sometimes the pay off you can't just focus on the negative.
Not once in my post did I say Logan was terrible. I do not think that he is a good QB, but terrible...no.
Logan being amongst the top of VT record books has as much to do with his longevity as anything. He'll finish his career with 3+ full seasons under his belt, and is as durable as they come. Looking at his per game statistics as I broke down, one would not expect him to graduate our career leader in passing. Plus, the game has become much more pass centric. Last season, the alternative to throwing was handing off to Michael Holmes...big surprise he threw a lot.
In no way was my inclusion of Glennon's stats advocating anything. I just found it interesting that a guy who most people on this site detest, has a much better career completion percentage and TD/INT ratio than someone who gets defended so passionately that it makes me think he somehow has incriminating pictures of the entire forum.
I do not accept that he puts us in the best position to win games without seeing the alternative. If we know he is going to make mistakes, why do we keep trotting him out there? Does the power running ability, which for the most part has become less and less effective as defenses have adjusted, outweigh all of the turnovers?
Haha. They were pretty vocal about not allowing any of that, but if you had a ref call it on you they were probably just taking their job a bit too seriously.
There were students in nothing but speedos the entire game. If they can brave the weather like that, there aren't many other excuses to leave the game early as a student. Also, I'd say there was a lot higher percentage of students that left the game early than alumni.
That is the same MV7 who said he never watched game film and prepped until he was at Philly under Any R....Just saying

Want me to keep going?
I get your point but he's our best option, if you think otherwise then you really don't understand how a very successful D-1 football program is run. If Leal was a better choice or we had any better option then we'd do it hands down end of discussion.
Not trying to troll back, but moisture and low temperatures can weaken the immune system and thus make us more likely to get sick after prolonged exposure to the normal pathogens that are constantly around us. Giving your immune system a boost is probably a sound idea.
