  1. Going to be a good game. Hard to gauge right now how it will go, so many unknowns for both teams. GT will come out with some wrinkles that will catch VT by surprise, just a matter of whether it will amount to points or not. May be another one of the "team with the biggest kid on the playground wins" type games.
  2. Was screwing around on #10 one night with a buddy, skipping balls back and forth. He was on the tee side and I was on the green side. We went back and forth about 4 times, and then I got a little aggressive and skipped mine into the parking lot. . . . drilled my Dad's truck
  3. Nobody will probably agree with me, but I think this is the hardest VT schedule in years. Probably one of the hardest in the past 20 years. There isn't an eye popping difficult game, but from top to bottom, definitely the hardest schedule in quite some time. I wouldn't be surprised if they went 8-4
  4. Do you believe the high school education system in the area prepares kids for the "real world"? Because it does nothing even close to that, sad but true.
  5. What are the laws regarding vouchers for private school or home schooling in Virginia? I agree with home schooling if the parent feels it will get the child the best education available, and if they are not receiving vouchers to offset the cost of home schooling then the child should be able to use the facilities and programs their taxes helped pay for.
  6. To the original poster: Whatever you get, don't pay more than ~$500 for it. The video card fried on my old dell last year, I paid 2000 for the computer when I bought it July of 2007. It lasted me about 3 years. I got a $400 HP for Christmas last year and it is significantly better than the dell I bought 3 years prior (specs wise). Just get something with at least 2GB of RAM, Windows 7, and run Chrome browser on it. You will get at least 3 years out of it and when it runs out of juice you can get a better laptop for even cheaper.
  7. Jim Delany is good friends with Swofford. They went to school together at UNC. And Delany pretty much runs the BCS, so he definitely could have given a "wink wink" to the Sugar Bowl executives. Delany also did everything in his power to get the Tatoo 5 eligible for the Sugar Bowl last year vs Arkansas, after what he did there was no way he was going to let Sugar Bowl select a Boise State type team.

  9. http://www.stiffarmtrophy.com/ These guys tally the votes as voting members announce them in the media. I followed it the last couple of years and it is very accurate.
  10. Stop over thinking it. BCS = LSU vs Alabama Orange = VT vs Big East (WVU) Rose = BIG 10 vs Pac (Wisconsin vs Oregon) Fiesta = Big 12 vs At Large (Okie State vs Stanford) Sugar = At large vs Non AQ (Michigan vs Houston) Why in the world would the sugar bowl pick KSU over Michigan? Or VT over Michigan? All schools will have 2 loses. KSU doesn't travel, VT will have just lost. Michigan is a tier 1 school who has had a miserable last 5 years and just won 10 games. They are excited about their program and would love a trip to Nola. Bottom line Michigan = Tier 1 program in terms of history, tv, and fans VT = Tier 2 program KSU = Maybe a tier 2, could even be a tier 3
  11. 8th-ish?? You're dreaming. If VT loses to Clemson they will drop like a rock. I would even guess they would drop below Michigan.
  12. Fiesta is not picking VT over Michigan, that just wouldn't be logical Michigan is going to Sugar. I can see Peach picking UVA though if VT chokes
  13. VT winning could push Clemson out of the Peach though. Per the AJC, they don't want to pick a team that lost 4 of the last 5, especially if they pick Auburn which it looks like they are leaning that way. It will be FSU vs Auburn or Clemson vs Florida, I think FSU is a more likely pick if VT wins.
  14. I don't think Hosley should have made either team. He got beat alot. Fuller should have been first team. D. Hopkins should have been on at least 2nd.
