Question about the bowl game and coaching

This is a topic that I have never really given any thought to, because frankly Beamer has been the coach of the Hokies since I was 4 years old, but I was curious about the coaching situation heading into the bowl game.

With Fuente being officially announced as the next coach and already operating in that capacity (staff decisions, reaching out to recruits, etc), what effect does this have on the coaching and preparation for the bowl game?

Obviously Beamer is going to be on the sideline to coach his last game, but all of those extra practices leading up to it, who's system is going to be practiced? Seems to me it does little to no good to practice for a month an offensive system that is going to be scrapped when the game clock hits all zereos.

As I said, I have never given the matter any thought for obvious reasons, and havn't paid attention to similar situations at other schools.
