Comparing Red Zone and 3rd down %
This year so far I wanted to see how we compared in some of the statistics that apparently matter a lot in the outcome of games. I looked at 3rd down % and red zone. Our turnover margin is -1 so figured didnt need to post that one up. Thoughts on where things are now and where they are going?
3rd down % on Offense

Currently we are #15 which is surprising.
We have also faced GT #1, ECU #10, OSU #20

Game Outcomes that Help the Hokies This Weekend
With the it being a week until VT plays at Pitt I was thinking about what outcomes this weekend could help VT. Unfortunately uva is on a bye too as well and so they can't lose this weekend.
My thoughts on the impactful outcomes:

N.C.A.A. Fan Map shows that Virginia Tech dominates the State of Virginia
The Virginia Tech Hokies are not only winning on the field but also in the number of fan base. While many states are divided between universities, the Commonwealth of Virginia is united in the support of the Virginia Tech Hokies.
Go Hokies!

Brothers in the NFL
By: AWilkes
on October 8, 2014, 12:28 AM
While watching the VT All Access and seeing the Fullers, my curiosity was piqued and I sought out how many sets of more than 3 brothers have reached the NFL as our Fullers no doubt will. The list I found is accurate through 2013. NFL brothers I'm calling conspiracy on the Nessers, Ted as the player/coach with 4 brothers on his team reeks of nepotism. In any case, assuming Kendall fulfills his obvious potential, our boys will be the second brotherly quartet to grace the modern NFL.

LT Might Start Against Redskins
Former Hokie and Cardinals HC Bruce Arians is hopeful that Stanton or Palmer will be able to play but there is a good chance that neither will be ready. Arians said they have to get at least one full practice this week to play.
The Cardinals just signed former Oregon star Dennis Dixon to the practice squad. I'm assuming that is to provide some QB depth behind Thomas if neither Stanton nor Palmer can play.
Some of the fan forums I keep up with are not very confident that the passing game will do well this week due to how poorly the receivers played last Sunday (8 or 9 drops) and how poorly LT played (1 for 8 passing).

Will Virginia break streak vs. Virginia Tech?
Last year the University of Virginia had a huge clock counting down the days they finally ended their losing streak against Virginia Tech. This year, the Cavaliers are 2-0 in the ACC and are quietly counting down the days they meet the Hokies again hoping the outcome will be different. With new faces on both sides of the ball and a new QG under center, the Hoos see it as a perfect opportunity to end the 10 years losing streak. Many ESPN analysts agree that this could be the year UVA defeats the Hokies at their own stadium. Like years past, Frank Beamer and his young team will have something to say about that.
