LegendatLegion 109 Report Share Posted December 6, 2008 VT and BC both 3 and out early...VT runs down the field with a mix of running and passing score on Taylor draw, 7-0 Hokies first quarter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LegendatLegion 109 Author Report Share Posted December 6, 2008 gets inside the 10, Tyrod runs it in after getting good pressure on a 2nd down attempted pass. TD VT they lead 14-0. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vthokies4life 10 Report Share Posted December 6, 2008 I'm happy with the way we've looked so far. We need to tighten back up on defense though. Let's see how we look in the second half. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

POSKN8R 12 Report Share Posted December 7, 2008 I think if they play like they did tonight then they should take cincinatti easily but god knows stinespring will probably call a qb draw on 3rd and 12 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LegendatLegion 109 Author Report Share Posted December 7, 2008 Actually with the exception of the second series and the 3rd down call VT looked good on offense today, maybe it is the start of a trend. LOL i'll believe that when i see it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Congrats to vt fans another consistent season and acc title. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Congrats to vt fans another consistent season and acc title. How's that Big East Championship game going tonight??? :eek: Well considering the ACC Championship game was a 750 mile trip for VT fans and a 1350 mile trip for BC fans, no wonder they couldn't fill more than 1/3 of the stadium, especially with the fact that VT didn't get in the Championship game until last Saturday (kinda late to arrange a trip to Tampa). Once the ACC Championship game is moved to Charlotte, attendance will be MUCH improved. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deleted Account 5,203 Report Share Posted December 7, 2008 I think Cincinnati will win. The comment abojut the ACC being strong this year I hope was sarcasm. It had to have been. I really think Cincinnati's going to win it. VT's record in bowl games has been less than impressive lately. 4-7 in their last 11. VT won the 2005 Gator Bowl, and that's been it since 2003. 1-4 in their last 5, not a very spiffy record. Winless in BCS games this decade, too, and it's not for a lack of getting there. Cincinnati-21 VT-17 That is, if it's actually Cincinnati/VT. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just want you to know that I am honestly hoping you eat a tremendous amount of crow for this prediction! :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just want you to know that I am honestly hoping you eat a tremendous amount of crow for this prediction! :D For the Hokie contingency here, I wouldn't mind it if it came down to this. ;) I believe a matchup with Cincinnati is the best shot the Hokies have. If not Cincinnati, then it would be an at large, and those would be: Texas, Alabama, Utah, Boise/OSU. I'd give them about a 5% chance at beating Texas or Alabama, a 10% chance of beating OSU, and about a 25% chance of beating Utah or Boise. I'd put the odds right around 40% for Cincinnati. I can't wait to see the spread for that game, though. I think it'd be around Cincinnati -4.5. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GMan 3,569 Report Share Posted December 7, 2008 Anybody watch Cincy-Hawaii last night??? Cincy scored 19 points in the 4th quarter to pull out a 29-24 victory...Hawaii pretty much self-destructed in the final period...in post game interview, Cincy's coach was comparing Hawaii to Oklahoma...

VTCC22 10 Report Share Posted December 9, 2008 If VT plays like they did Saturday in the ACC championship, they will win BIG! Tyrod played probably the best game of his career. Ive said all along, if they keep Glennon off the field VT is very strong with or without the terrible play calling of Stinespring. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest JJBrickface Report Share Posted December 9, 2008 Cincinnatti is a pretty good team. They have good receivers and their quarterbacks are surprisingly good. Their defense is obviously their strong point. Against WVU, their secondary did a great job of making open field tackles. Besides Texas and maybe Texas Tech, they are the only other team to really keep up with Oklahoma. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GMan 3,569 Report Share Posted December 9, 2008 Besides Texas and maybe Texas Tech, they are the only other team to really keep up with Oklahoma. Take away a 97-yard kick-off return and a TD on the last play of the game against OU's backups, they lose 52-13...OU put up almost 600 yards of offense on them...

You brought up a good point. Tech's special teams better show up and be ready to play because Cincinnati has one of the best return men in the nation in Mardy Gilyard. I'm not sure where he ranks now, but I do know for a fact that he was leading the country in returns earlier this season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
