Because we're all Sunday morning quarterbacks.
Also want to call out that the refs called PSUs final time out when the coach and no one had signaled for it and also called tOSU's final time out because Urban approached a line judge.
Apparently we offered ex-Clemson QB Chad Kelly. Not sure how I feel about it.

Quarterback Chad Kelly (Scooba, Miss./East Mississippi Community College) tweeted that Virginia Tech offered.
Kelly transferred out of Clemson in the spring. He will enroll at the college of his choice in January.
For some reason, I can't find links on the ACC's website for either ACC Network game. If anyone else can find one, feel free to post it.
I've looked at the websites of the Virginia and DC stations that regularly carry ACC Network games.
These stations are carrying the VT game:
Blacksburg - Fox 21/27 (CBS has a noon game, so WDBJ can't carry ACC Network)
Richmond - Fox 35 (WRLH)
Tidewater - CW 27 (WGNT)
These stations originally had UNC/Miami in their schedule grid, but have now updated to BC/VT:
DC - My20 (WDCA)
Hooville - NBC 29 (WVIR)
There's a chance!
Just watch and enjoy.

The game next week is on the ACC Network at 12:30. This season the Hokies are 2-0 in this slot. I predict a win.
Anyone watching the other games this weekend.
Watching UNC and UVA. This announcer are hilarious. They are so pro-UVA it's comical. Saying things like "I love Mike London and would live of my kid wanted to play for him". On PI..."they threw a flag for incidental contact" (which isn't a penalty). UNC makes a good defensive play, "wow, he was there early".
Usually at the end of the season the coaches will sit down with the AD and/or Frank and discuss how they've done. Kind of like with most jobs, just a job reviewal to see where their career is heading. I'm interested in how those are going to go this year. Frank will not get fired, regardless of what you think about whether or not he should it's obvious by his extension that Whit has faith in him. Bud isn't going anywhere, not that anyone is suggesting he will. Loeffler's will be interesting.
Did ESPN do anything for the entrance? I was at the game but I'd be interested to see the video (it's not on ESPN3).
Dear TKPers (and the Hokie Nation),
I have been thinking all day, "How on earth did we lose that badly to Miami last night?" It was truly embarrassing and I had a lot of time to think about what could have caused it. Poor playcalling? Maybe. Poor coaching? Maybe. Poor preparation? Maybe. But these things don't really explain why we lost so badly. Surely we could have overcome some of these factors and at least played a closer game.
I was looking for something like this from Beamer after the Pitt Loss and no clue what would have made Friday morning any better though

this just seems like true feelings of this missed opportunities and true feeling of not winning
(First Forum Topic hope I didnt break any rules)
This was posted this morning by Andrea Adelson with ESPN.
"As bad as it has been for Virginia Tech, the Hokies have never before been 1-3 in conference play, calling into question not only why this team has failed to progress, but how much progress can definitively be made as long as Beamer is in charge."

First off...still baffled by the playcalling.
On our very first offensive snap, zone stretch to right side. Teller, Wang, and Conte dominated the middle of the line of scrimmage...I'm looking forward to seeing this on film. However, the playcall was for a slow developing outside zone that got sniffed out by Miami's fast linebackers.
Because of the push our G-C-G combo got on that first snap, I was optimistic we would have success with a heavy doze of Marshawn power inside zone stuff....except we hardly ran any plays of that nature. The few times we did were with succes...Even Jerome Wright's first offensive snap got 4 yards on an inside zone action...
Teel wrote all the right words, and nailed it as far as I'm concerned.

Michael Brewer is a tough QB, but the past few games he hasnt been playing well. Hes been missing open receivers and throwing the ball to the opposing teams. Coach Beamer has been loyal to him until the Thursday night debacle when Beamer said "we are going to look at the QB situation. I think everything is on the table right now. Were going to look at a lot of things". After watching the game last night, I doubt that Brewer is still the best option at QB right now.
Is there a QB controversy in Blacksburg?
- I've never seen a VT team look so soft. Both lines of scrimmage were absolutely dominated, there wasn't the speed swarm tackling on defense, and the offense looked flat out unmotivated to play.
- I'd be curious to see the offensive stats throughout the season. I swear we have gotten worse as the season has progressed. I'm sick of us making every defense look like the damn steel curtain
- Shane Beamer needs to get his glove on a stick out for the RBs. I still laugh at that tool when you see him use it on video. The 3 straight turnovers were really frustrating last night.
- Is it time for a QB change? I don't know if Brewer is playing hurt or has lost his confidence, but he is just not playing well.
I think all of us here can say that we all appreciate everything CFB has done for this program. I was always on the side of lettting him stay throughout his contract or when he wanted to leave, but after last nights performance, I don't know if I can say the same. Once again, it didn't look like we were prepared for the game, took way too many penalties again, and had questionable play calling at best. Seemed like the only plays we ran were runs up the middle and WR screens.
Coaches lost it in the first half for us. Players lost it for us in the second. Simple as that. I'm in Germany and this is the second week in a row where I've asked myself, "why the f*** did I stay up for this game?"get it together Hokies!
