Sounds right. Can't recall playing them since.
An ugly win in a noisy stadium, where it was very hostile towards VT. I don't know if it came across over the TV, but on the radio, it was definitely loud. Considering the youth we have, and the fact they probably aren't used to that...coming out of an ugly road game with a W is fantastic for growth. We'll need it when we hit the road for GT and Miami.
How about other predictions?
VT Sacks:
Facyson interceptions:
Receiver drops:
Trey Edumunds spin moves:
I automated this in another way and all the votes I cast must have been removed. I think I cast a few thousand votes but it didn't move the needle.
28-0.
Offense sputters in the rain, but James Gayle and Co. rack up 14 safeties.
Bud Foster will keep them in check. Our offense just needs to not give the ball up.
The whole game I kept saying "I want Clemson to win so we can beat them in the ACCCG." Then NC State would make a play and I'd be excited. I was so conflicted.
Keep in mind that marshalls D has ad many question marks as our O this year (if not more) they were exposed by a mac team...so take comfort in that and the fact that as good as their offense is it still struggled to put points up on an ohio team that has a D not even close to as good as ours for that reason alone im a little nervous but confident
19-17. Two defensive touchdowns and Cody misses two extra points.
I see what you did there.
For some reason the last time I remember us playing JMU was back with Kevin Jones in 2003. Hmm...and it was beautifully sunny that day.
Keep calm..and Sam Rogers
I just moved from DC up to Washington Heights in March, so I'm still a little new with all of this. But honestly I like Pourhouse a lot. The bartenders are great, the rails are legit (and they let me order a rail pitcher last week), and there's the $30 (maybe it was $40) all you can drink deal.
That being said, I agree with the atmosphere, everyone seems to kind of keep to themselves even though we're all invested in the same game. It's a little weird. I'd definitely be down to check this new place out. Especially if we can be the exclusive team and deck in tech.
Edit: Maybe rename this to something about NYC so everyone will notice it? I almost didn't read it!
Someone with the know how needs to break out Matlab
Could it be a DOUBLE RAINBOW?
Do you ever use the crosstown buses? They're pretty solid actually.
I'm afraid I don't see the problem here. You can drive bare foot and what do you need pants for? #TEAMNOPANTS
I haven't seen the injury report yet but if Gibson and Shuman are still out our running game may suffer. They seemed to be the difference in the line between Bama and ECU. We really needed them last week. Hopefully they are back and healthy. If it all comes together tomorrow this could be really fun to watch! Either way this VT team proved that it can answer and eek out a win in an ungly game if need be. Now it's time for the offense to open up and rack up points. Go Hokies!!!
First, this is my first "at length" post. Mostly, I have just kinda been creeping on TKP reading...everything. I go to grad school in Philadelphia and I get what you're saying. The alumni group meets at a bar in center city called Tavern on Broad. I don't know what/if the agreement is with that bar, but we share it with like 20 (sorta an exaggeration but not really) other schools. Also not a ton of Hokies show up to the watch parties there, myself included (usually studying or actually going back down to Blacksburg) and I assume because no one wants to actually come into smelly Philly (honestly, I didn't know some of these smells even existed prior to living here). I was there for the FSU game last year, so each school has a "private room" and they put our "room" right next to the FSU "room". Needless to say there were some classless FSU fans that come over to our "room" after they won and proceeded to scream and dance on our tables (grrrr). But getting back to your point yeah big city bars definitely lack the Blacksburg feel...
football players man...I have no idea what runs through their minds sometimes
we learned during 09 miami that its good to have a change of clothes for the ride home. we had ponchos but our pants, shoes, and socks were soaked. friggin miserable 2 hour drive.
If we can run the ball well, I predict a convincing Hokie win. If not, this could be ugly and the defense might have to really save us.
Hes got 629 rushing I think thru 3 games and double digit tds already
