Lots of butthurt from LOLUVA on that board last night

"We were at the pinnacle, and we did it for years," Foster says. He pauses, nods, takes a deep breath. "And I did it with the best guy in the business."

Brutally funny stuff. They're probably 4th in the nation in 3rd downs because Oregon (and I'm just guessing here) always got a first down in two plays. Looks like some responders fixed the guy though.

Hey now, ..according to one of their posters "their defense played very well against Ore"

59 points. That's playing very well. loluva standards.

I think they were playing well if you consider giving up 120 points good! If so they beat they're goal but 61 points haha.

I have no idea why my username is VT_Warthog.

Arkansas blew a 24-0 lead in the Belk Bowl.

THe funniest part about the Sabre to me is that you know they all just want to bash us....but there's gotta be that little voice in the back of their head saying, "but they've beat us 9 years straight and have held the Commonwealth Cup for over 3000 consecutive days" that keeps them from doing it too much.

Nope...In the back of their minds they are thinking "Commonwealth Cup...What's that? Will it hold Zima? If I drink out of it, will Zima spill on my tie?"

You're assuming that they have minds...

Take the shortest route to the ball and arrive in bad humor.

Can we take a moment and appreciate this fan's post from that page?

Did we play tonight? ** -- HoodatB Thu Sep 26 2013 11:17:47 PM

DFWTF...DON'T FUCK WITH THE FULLERS

I read that as a rhetorical question to explain why they were talking about VT's defense as opposed to UVA's. However, that might not be a safe assumption for a UVA blog.

Not the bagman VT deserves, but the bagman VT needs right now.

"We didn't give up a single yard or point tonight, and VT gave up 10 points and 273 yards. We're so much better than them on defense!!!!111one"

....Welp.

Not the bagman VT deserves, but the bagman VT needs right now.

Yeah, there's any number of ways that question could have been asked

21st century QBs Undefeated vs UVA:
MV7, MV5, LT3, Grant Wells, Braxton Burmeister, Ryan Willis, Josh Jackson, Jerod Evans, Michael Brewer, Tyrod Taylor, Sean Glennon, and Grant Noel. That's right, UVA. You couldn't beat Grant Noel.

Considering were 4th in the nation on 3rd downs I think that says a lot, especially when we've got a game against Oregon in our stats!

This is my favorite part. That is probably because Oregon scored on first and second down and didn't have to bother with 3rd.

Just looked it up, Oregon was 3 for 10..

EDIT: I was thinking about this as I went to sleep last night. I think the Marshall offense might be the best we see all year.

I guess you're thinking VT will not play Clemson or FSU in the championship game. Because, as good as Cato was, Boyd and Winston are on the same level. The difference is the offensive line, WRs and RBs are much better on those teams. So, yea, let's hope we earn the opportunity to play against some better offenses!

🦃 🦃 🦃

I meant, the best that we have seen. I think Clemson is better, for sure, but Marshall has a pretty sick offense regardless of CUSA.

Being near the top in a SINGLE statistic that is meaningless when taken by itself >/= VT's D which is tops in INT's and sacks AND near the top in yardage allowed...Sure, Hoos. See you in November.

A decade on TKP and it's been time well spent.

Do they not realize they have a horrible football team? What bizarro land do they live in?

When I saw that I spit coffee everywhere.................lol.
Delusional hoos!!!!

TN_Hokie

Let's analyze this.

BYU has offense similar to that of ours last year. A dumpster fire. No identity.

Against Oregon, they actually did do pretty good on 3rd down, 3-10. It doesn't mean anything if you give up 59 points and 557 yards.

VMI is TERRIBLE, worse than WCU. They got shutout against Richmond, beat Glenville St. by a TD (and almost lost) and lost to North Greenville by 13.

Outside of Oregon, UVA hasn't exactly been tested. Enter Pitt.

I have no idea why my username is VT_Warthog.

Arkansas blew a 24-0 lead in the Belk Bowl.

And they still managed to gift BYU 362 yards!!! Guess that's what great defenses do, give up over 350 yards a game.

I think I just shat myself laughing! Didn't think today could get any better! Happy Happy Friday!
Can't wait to see Pittsburg drop 50 on the french and their 4th in the nation d-

UVA's defense will be a nice complement to their wine next weekend. BECAUSE THEY'LL BE SLICED AND DICED LIKE CHEESE CUBES AMIRITE?

I have no interest in reading what they have to say, but in general using 3rd down numbers to argue about the strength of a defense isn't all that accurate.

So when I first read the title of this forum, my immediate reaction was this:
Wtf

Then I proceded to go to theSabre and read all their posts and saw how unbelievably delusional they are...
Lol

VT 12'... Exit light, Enter night.

What a win that was for our mighty Cavs! Best defense in the country, and Mike London is the greatest Virginia coach ever!"

Man, these UVA fans sound a lot like Redskins fans. Delusions of grandeur each year.

"I'm too drunk to taste this chicken" - Colonel Sanders via Ricky Bobby

As a Redskins fan, this statement only offends me because you compared us to UVA fans. I can accept the fact that we're completely delusional regarding our team, but I will NEVER accept comparisons to UVA fans!

Agreed! I may be delusional about my Skins, but I can't imagine claiming the things that Boo-Hoos claim on a regular basis.

A decade on TKP and it's been time well spent.

Back off the Skins fans amigo, haven't we suffered enough the past 20 years (last year not included). Not cool comparing us to the boohoos. Besides, those of us who were brainwashed as children to love the Skins deserve your pity, especially if it happened way back in the 60's. Dan Snyder < Jerry Jones

I just sit on my couch and b*tch. - HokieChemE2016

Yeah I agree. I kind of going into most seasons thinking 4-12 or 6-10 at best. Pretty sure I said that last year until RG3 took off.

To be fair, the fans that are delusional for the Redskins are mostly UVA fans anyway.

In Sam Rogers we trust.

This is how people lose turkey legs.....

EDIT: I didn't actually downvote you, that was someone else.

Must...not...downvote...OK, I resisted. The Zima drinkers are too self-important to cheer for the Skins on Sundays, there's too many cocktail parties to attend on their days off.

Actually, I know a ton of Hokies that are also Skins fans. Due in no small part to a huge percentage of our student population/alumni base being from the DMV area.

No, I *don't* want to go to the SEC. Why do you ask?

We don't love dem Hoos.

I just love how the last time they beat us there weren't any facebook status' about it...cause it didn't exist yet. lets make it a decade 11/30/13

Hmmm - let's see - The Hoos have given up 75 points in three games while Tech has given up 79 points in five games. Yep, those Hoos are on to something, aren't they?

But we've given up FOUR more points than them! Quick! Delete that statistic before they see it and use it in their argument!

Nah, they're going to be too busy fudging their t-tests trying to prove that the Oregon game was a statistical outlier and they've really only given up 8 ppg because the Oregon game shouldn't count.

"Exit light..."

I was going on the sabre last night just to have a good laugh and they didn't disappoint. Every time we'd stop GT, they would post things like "VT keeps getting lucky". hahaha.

You know they watch our games to see what real football is, right?

"I want to punch people from UVA right in the neck." - Colin Cowherd

I'll be honest, UVA's defense looked fairly good today. However, Pitt's offense isn't anything to write home about. If UVA's defense can't put up points on Pitt they might be in for a LONG season.

My favorite part was a response on that board from an educated UVA fan (shocker)

Dude, stop. Just please stop. We gave up 59 pts and over 550
yards to Oregon. We didn't play great against them at all. BYU?
Strong? They beat a Texas team that sucks this year and we
didn't shut them down. Today, yes. We played excellent.
CANADAY BABYYYYY! But you're trying to compare our D this
season with VT's? Hahaha. Yikes. If you would like to talk real
stats here you go:

We are 2-2 because of our offense, they are 4-1 because of their
D. They held Alabama to the lowest yardage game they've had in
2 years. Their 3.3 ypc average was lowest since Saban took over.
They were in the game unlike us and Oregon.

Thursday against GT, VT held Gt to 129 rushing yards. 200+ (yes
two hundred) below their season average.

VT is tied with the most interceptions on the season

I just don't understand what on earth could possibly have made
you think that. 3rd downs? Hahaha.

Don't get me wrong, they're beatable. But dude, we are nowhere
close to that level of D. So again, please stop. You're
embarrassing us.

Yes, I was just about to post this....there are people with sense over there.

We don't love dem Hoos.

What brain damaged individual actually believes UVA has a better Defense than the Hokies?? If they had half the defense y'all have then they wouldn't have gotten embarrassed by Oregon at home. Hell my team struggled on offense against y'all in week one. They need to stop smoking crack

Eternal Soldier Roll Tide!!!

Good to see you are still posting on here. And I agree 100%.

These are UVA fans we're talking about here. Honestly, I don't know what the SEC equivalent would be, but I want to say that they come from one of the MS schols.

The snootiest SEC school is probably Vandy, and even they play tough football. I don't think there is an equivalent.

The "tough football" part is why I didn't go with them.

I was leaning toward Ole Miss because they can recruit and get those rankings up... and then woefully underperform.

No, I *don't* want to go to the SEC. Why do you ask?

We don't love dem Hoos.

Yep def Ole miss. I don't think Bo Wallace will be calling Bama out again after last week and UVA will hopefully learn their lesson

Eternal Soldier Roll Tide!!!

No doubt! Some people don't have any common sense! Kinda like Bob Stupid I mean stoops callin out the SEC after gettin his ass hammered if the bowl game last year. That's what's gonna happen to UVA again by VT. Some people don't know how or when to shut the hell up. They gone learn today! LOL

Eternal Soldier Roll Tide!!!

Okay, we've had a shutout game every season the last few years. We better have one against uva this year!

Hey they are the #1 3rd down D They held Ball State to only converting 5 out of 14 attempts....

A new season...new hope

And as we all know, points and yardage are irrelevant. It's all about 3rd down conversions.

Truly impressed by how you can bring this joke up in just about every thread. Turkey leg.

Of course they have the best defense. Their secret weapon is hydrating heir team w/ Zima versus Gatorade.
