First team ran 5 pistol plays. One was a straight pass pro. The second team ran 4 or 5 when Edmunds played with them. Farris botched a snap and Edmunds picked it up and got a 9 yard gain on one play. Most of the offense was either I, 2 TE Ace, or the gun. While that doesn't sound exciting (and irritates me because I want them to be great at one thing instead of so-so at a bunch of things), they AT LEAST have added new wrinkles. Last year, you could almost guess the play half the time based on formation. That is a recipe for disaster in Tecmo Bowl, and even worse in big time college football. At least now, it looks like they have some stuff to throw the D off balance.

we ended up drinking with Joe Klecko of Jets fame at the old Vet in Philly when we played Temple. We had a case of Fosters oil cans between two of us, and Klecko fed us for free since he was so impressed. Pretty sweet day!!!!!!
(Also the same day the first guy to win a million on Millionare won...we were in some pub in Philly drinking Lager with no sound. Didn't exactly know at the time, but watched it and the PSU game.)

The entire year! We lived in the apartments that are 50 yards from the practice field and 150 from the student gate. We had 7, count them SEVEN, home games that year. That was the days of the athletic card, where you gathered everyone's card in your fraternity and their friends and got seats for that many cards. Needless to say, not everyone used their allotted tickets.

We would pick up the first keg at 6, second at 8, third at 10. That's just before the Weaver Noon kickoff. Since there were tix left, and there was ample everything only 150 yards away, we would head back "home." Hit the keg and wild turkey, grab a new ticket, and resume the second half. Again, this was the case for SEVEN home games.

The best was the Friday game against UVA. We all came back Wednesday, hit downtown like it owed us money, cooked a turkey Thursday with 14 of us eating off a ping pong table, then tailgating for UVA with several randoms at our apartment. Same routine for the first 6 that year. And, we had 2 days to "recover", or "maintain", depending on how you look at it...

Were can I get a number 17 nike jersey? I'm a huge Kyle Fuller Fan, but it seems odd to me that the bookstore does not have a #17 jersey after the year he had last year.

still up and still loading for me. if it ever gets taken down, I'll just reupload and post up the link.

man, wish i could have heard him say that! that's awesome!

Well it looks like I owe everyone a round of RAILS.

Did youtube take the video down? It's no longer working.

I want to watch it so bad, but I'm forcing myself to wait until this weekend when my friends and I can drink and watch it.

The hurricane game vs. aTm - we actually bought a tent for the first time ever for this tailgate, it did not survive.

@LSU - for reasons mentioned in another comment

some Big East game vs. Miami - my friends got my mom to do a shot of jager

Many of the all day parties we had setting up shop in the Litton Reaves grass with no parking pass

Hell, I really can't list just these. Every Saturday (or Thursday) in Blacksburg is special and ties as my favorite tailgate ever.

the game at LSU was the most amazing thing I have ever been to in my life. we started drinking before we left New Orleans, couldn't find a bag of ice anywhere in Baton Rouge, walked 6 miles across LSU's campus in 110 degree heat with a 700lb cooler, rode a mechanical bull, got tiger bated left and right, ate some amazing food, and had the best time of my life

I thought one of those fumbles was an exchange issue, and the coaches were saying something about he didn't have his arm in the right position for the exchange. That should definitely be fixable.

Against a 50 front (3-4 defense), I would imagine that the WR would option stalk with the WR and pull just Benedict, or they would try to Block the 4 technique with the TE and pull the tackle. I think it would be very hard to pull Wang and get him out in front of th back unless the back takes a big counter step before the hand off.t

Invites have been sent out to your email that you used to sign up with the site. I have the draft set for 6:30 pm est Sunday Sept 2nd. If this does not work for anyone please let me know so we can adjust to accommodate.

For Edmunds, both fumbles came where he got hit in the backfield and gang tackled, and he was trying to push the pile.

Was it just me, or did Deon Clarke sit out of the scrimmage? I don't remember him playing at all, even with the 3's?

I love how the trip is focused on football and the local breweries. I need more Pliny the Elder and Russian River!

Bill does it again! another awesomely incredible video! I only wish there was HD video from the 90's!
