It's basically like playing ECU again. Their strengths (QB, big WR's, quick strike attack) and weaknesses (Uh....defense) are practically identical. Cinncy runs a lot of wild-cat, especially in the redzone. Seem to be very good at special teams as well.
This will be no picnic, but I would rather face an ECU clone instead of a BC clone. We won't be worried about big OT's burying Dadi on down blocks. With Kiel at QB, we don't have to worry about scrambles. Our strengths match up well with their strengths.
The key to the game, as with any VT game, is how will our offense perform against a not-very-good defense?

[Babcock] has plenty of realignment experience. He was at West Virginia when the Big East was raided by the ACC in 2003 and at Missouri when it made its way to the SEC.

I wonder if Munchie Legeaux will make an appearance

This quote from the article Andy linked to should have the VT to SEC crowd in a roar:
