French's Hot Takes

This is what Virginia Tech football is about- unheralded recruits like Dadi Nicolas, Woody Baron, and Donovan Riley and walkons like Sam Rogers, Derek DiNardo and Willie Byrn making huge plays. This is why I became a fan.

Terrific effort by the secondary, who was in a tough spot all night. Chuck Clark showed a ton of resiliency. He became a much better player tonight. Jarrett had a huge game. Deon Clarke and Chase Williams tackled better and better as the game progressed, and the scheme was beautiful to get them passing lanes. And guys like Ken Ekanem and Seth Dooley sacrificing themselves to drop into coverage and draw blockers in order to free those linebackers up.

Offensively, what a game plan by Scot Loeffler. People are going to fret about the lack of running game, but Ohio State has guys who are 3rd team defensive tackles who could make an All-ACC team. Brewer had a fantastic game. The line COMPETED all night even when they were completely outgunned. The backs were very strong blocking and ran with effort. The receivers made plays.

This is just fantastic.
