Maybe just an orange outline around the VT instead of with the white? I feel like the Hokie Stone has the white covered.
All that aside, that looks amazing. Matte maroon is the best. And, 1000X better than a hokie foot car magnet on white...
For anyone who wants to watch Derrick Nnadi.
The bullrush at the 2:28 mark was just absurd.
Probably the most overlooked call from that game came before the stupid fake punt. On 2nd down, David Wilson CLEARLY gets the 1st down. Absolutely no doubt about it. Yet the refs mark him short and we fall start on the next play, don't convert the 3rd down, then fake punt.
That PI on the interception was pretty horse shit too.
Go Spurs!
Big premier league fan (go Tottenham) here. Without a doubt in my mind, this would be the best thing to ever happen to American sports. This would virtually eliminate all of the useless games that plague an NCAA season because the good teams would be fighting for championships while the bad teams would be fighting relegation. Here's my model:
-Have football operate as a completely different entity. Makes all of this a lot easier.
-5 leagues with 14 teams. Each big league has a second tier. Possibly rename the second tier leagues so it's obvious who their top tier affiliate is.
-At the end of the season, the winner of the league's championship game will enter into an 8 team playoff. The other 3 teams will be picked at large.
-Meanwhile, the bottom 4 teams will play relegation battle games. The last place team will play the 4th worst team while the 2nd and 3rd worst teams play each other. The losers of these games get relegated while the winners survive. Down in the second tier, a similar process will be going on where the top 4 teams play 2 games to determine which 2 teams go up. All of these playoffs would be at a neutral site.
Quite frankly, I feel like this model would generate way more revenue so profits could be shared with the second tier and everyone would be happy. If teams really care about football, they would do whatever they can to get promoted and stay in the top league. It would also help fill stadiums at the end of the season because what kind of shitty fan would sit at home while they're team is in a relegation playoff game?
And just to prove my point, instead of snoozers at the end of the season, we would get frantic finishes like this.

I saw today that Marcus Davis got waived from the Giants.
Tis the season to be giddy. Can't wait to see the new scoreboards for lane and cassell to get put up this summer.
Nice to see this level of competition and coaching. Imagine what some of the lines in the recent past would have been like if they knew they would be getting beat out by freshmen and sophomores.
As a long-time Stanford fan, I can assure you that the Sugar Bowl was not an isolated incident. I've lost track of how many times I've wanted to just punch the zebras in the neck through my TV. Not that I would, mind you.... that's frowned upon by the state.
Bowl game, perhaps?
Shoot, I live in Blacksburg (and might be relocating to Winston-Salem) and I'm still gonna be there.
Oh, OK ... Sorry I took it the wrong way.
idk from my memory there were a few questionable pass interferences that swayed the game a little bit
Refs weren't to bad. The replay official on the other hand.
By ragdolls, do you mean UVA sorostitutes?
i would be so far against the NCAA calling it the Saban 70 model lol
The champ of the lower league gets promoted with 1 or 2 other teams from top of that league, while 2 or 3 low teams in the top league get demoted.
So here is the helmet. I added hokie stone to the VT logo too. And I put in on the matte because those helmets look badass.
Put the hokie stone inside VT logo with all maroon helmet. That would be a badass uni, bro.
Can't wait to see him throw uva qbs around like they're ragdolls.
Chelsea! jk, but the relegation among conferences really interests me personally. I believe it could provide the incentives and promote the best teams available in order to follow the "Saban 70" model
I saw today that Michigan signed some 4-star DE. Maybe that'll sway Hand's decision a little.
One of the problems I see is that a team could have 1-2 rebuilding years with young players, get demoted, and be unable to have the big upswing like you see sporadically.
What happens to the champ of the minor league? Do they get a spot in a playoff of some kind?
the matte is awesome. of all the effed up uniform combinations and helmet crap last year i loved the bowl helmet, i wish we had them earlier in the year instead of the bumper sticker feet helmet
