What about Maryland? hahahaha
We aren't the kind of team that's flashy like Oregon and Clemson, nor do we want to be. We don't load up recruits on the offensive side. By more of the same we don't mean this year. We mean back when we actually were a team that had powerful and effective backs. We had an O Line that created holes, and we were essentially bullies on defense and special teams. That is exactly what I want to get back too.
I'm still pissed about that: Ore averaging 5 yards per carry up the middle?
Stop pounding the rock.
That game made me feel much better. Now, no matter what, the ACC is guaranteed to have at least as good of a bowl record as the SEC (4-2 vs. 6-3 even if all 3 remaining SEC teams win), and the future ACC members have gone 2-0 so far.
that we have contracts with a few organizations (Local groups? Advertisers?) that say that they must buy up to X number of tickets if they are left unsold at kickoff... cuz there's no way that we've sold out every game legitimately. There was one this year that, out of curiosity, I went to HokieTickets and there were still some available on game day.
For those who haven't done this before, the easiest / best way to make and post these is RoflBot http://wigflip.com/roflbot/, and host on imgur.
American Football Coaches Association convention Jan 6-9. Expect VT to take advantage of this

1. I dont think Boyd would have been as successful here as he is at Clemson. They run a unique offense and his success may have been because of how well he fits it. We will never know of course.
2. We do get highly rated skill guys but they dont always turn out. I believe there was a post about some of the 4 star busts in the defensive secondary. A good coach or coaching staff should be able to take lower rated guys and making them gems (aka Danny Coale).
3. Finally the spread offense doesn't mean high scores. You brought up Bama's offense, other schools including Georgia and Stanford run the same type of offense and score tons of points. It comes down to coaching and recruiting players to fit the system.
to see us make Turtle Soup on Saturday. Have too many Twerps around me at work and in general on the Eastern Shore.
