Thank god for our defense and special teams cause our offense was doin to well.. It was a hard fought game though. If any of y'all are here at the game be safe traveling back. As much as I would like to see the people who excepted this bet pay up I'm not gonna hold my breath. Good luck in your season. I'll be pulling for y'all when I see y'all playing! Best of luck to y'all
Wow wow wow. I don't think anyone is accepting this as the standard. It can and should be better, but as you said they are fixable and that's why I'm optimistic for the future.
And hey,at least we aren't Oregon State or Kansas State
Its cool. I was thinking of the freshman on special teams when I said that.
This is going to be one of the great Hokies defenses. Playing this well with injuries like we have makes me salivate and then wonder how much more we could've embarrassed Bamas offense with Exum andRVD.

Look bottom line fellas we can't point fingers at one player. I know it seems easy but we didn't execute as a team tonight on offense. That's something that's going to get better as the season goes forward. I don't want to seem like I'm kicking some of these guys after a game when some of them know they didn't perform to the best of there ability. I told my freinds at church....Win or lose I'm going to ride with VT no matter what this is my team so...
As Macho Harris said, ''A minor setback for a major comeback''.
I'll drink to that, my friend. There's a lot of season left.
Might be a joke but Kendall cant be far from getting a call from Moorehead.

We barely even have vets on the starting sides of the ball, its a lot to ask for young inexperienced players to excel at their positions and on special teams.

I dont think anyone is saying this is the best we can expect, just the best we can expect given the circumstances. Those special teams touchdowns were bad yes, but Alabama has truly elite players and they make everyone look bad. That second touchdown was bad tackling form/elite power not a complete special teams oversight. The receivers with the exception of DJ Coles are just too green for this kind of matchup. Its not a matter of effort.
I sure hope Chris Mangus knows how to catch the football
Is anyone else wondering just what the we lost because of Joel Caleb's suspension and Kevin Asante being dismissed?
How about more Edmunds while we're at it. Big bro in house, little bro coming, and youngest a potential stud TE.
I said to a friend tonight that Beamerball had the final foot of dirt piled on its grave. Ugh, but do we really want vets on special teams? I don't know the right answer to that.
AMEN. I loved raining on AJs Heisman campaign parade
I dunno, I have a weird feeling that this team is going to be really good. Has a chance to be one the best Tech D's in a LONG time.
I agree that lack of experience is killing us, but I was responding to your argument that our guys need to be redshirted - they can't. The only ones behind them are true freshman. If you want them redshirted, too, then there's no one left.
The line as a whole shocked the hell out me. The fact that Edmunds even had those holes to run through is an incredible testament to their effort.
I'm not willing to accept that this is the best we can expect from a VT team. This wasn't a case of a team that was just outclassed. We know exactly where the team underperformed. VT has the pieces to beat Alabama, but they got zero effort from their receivers and special teams weren't prepared for the season, AGAIN. These are fixable problems. I am mad they weren't fixed before the team blew its chance to play its way into national championship contention. If this is the standard we're willing to accept then remove the empty trophy case and take the money we're spending on football and put it into medical research or need based scholarships or improved facilities or something.
Knowles in my opinion isn't ready still he's still learning how to become a wideout he was a track star. As for Stanford he got hurry last year how much time did he get? Its not excuses, but Dj really isn't the player that's going to be carrying this team he has potential and he's shined with Coales and Boykins. In my opinion he's not a first choice he's a third choice type of wideout.
Stanford is the only one that I give a passing grade to, out of that whole group.
I was just about to say this. As negative as I was being earlier, at the end of the day, I think we can say we had a respectable loss to Alabama
