Big win tonight boys and girls!
Big win tonight boys and girls!
Our D looked great against that quirky GT option. Our O had it's great moments, and not so great moments. My thoughts on the offense are that the addition of new coaches, new scheme, and green to average skill players, has made for a difficult year for LT. I honestly think LT has gotten a bad rap. He had great receivers and Wilson his first year. Last year he had nothing to work with. This year, he's dealing with new coaches/scheme. My hope is the D keeps us in the Conference chase until the O can somehow gel together. If that' even possible.

Re: Big win tonight boys and girls!
The amazing thing for me was that last night, for the first time in a very long time, I didn't have that nagging feeling in the back of my mind of "We're going to throw this game away." It felt like VT was there to do business and was in control the whole time. It was a nice (and perhaps fleeting) change of a pace...cwtcr hokie wrote:we can't be beat for the excitement value this year, coming to the last minutes in every game, awesome win tho

This defense is just phenomenal.

... this one is definitely looking like it's way up the list. I'm not sure I would take any of the previous defenses over this one ...

Not to pee on our Christmas tree, but we ran for ONE YARD not counting Lt.
We won I'm happy.
Our defense was wonderful I'm happy.
Lthomas looked good I'm happy.
Running game was non existent....

Re: Big win tonight boys and girls!
Maybe GT has a great running D ?? I don't know. They no longer have dumbass as their defensive coordinator so its possible they are a really good D too.oaktonhokie wrote:Not to pee on our Christmas tree, but we ran for ONE YARD not counting Lt.

I have been as critical as anyone this year regarding LT, but I have to say he had the spark last night. I thought he had his groove back last night. Looked like he was having fun. I think in 2012 he might have had too much BS going on in his brain about looking this way or that way, for NFL scouts. Probably lots of voices in his head telling him this or that. Last night he looked like a guy playing on the playground, and just wanted to win. We'll be fine if he stays with this attitude.
The defensive is sick.
