"Just wait until basketball season!"

1-4 in the ACC?

Who cares?!?! The 1 was against UVA, and that's all that matters.

So until next time, former-17th ranked Cavs...

Yeah, that's right. We said it. No, that is not a typo. With all due respect to women's basketball, our guy's team resembles a a bunch of prancing ballerinas that run, jump, and move around the three point line...except we do it with far less self-respect and even less finesse. Ugh. See, C Gally and The Northerner brought me on to keep you entertained during basketball season. Well, the more we keep losing, the more you losers don't want to read our blog. That's not cool. So dammit, Seth, for the sake of NEZ, f*cking win some games. Hmm, wonder if it will come Thursday night when we play UNC? Pfffft. Keep dreaming. Anyway, hit the jump for more.

Ugh. Really, guys, really?! You know, we understand that Florida State isn't a bad team, but for Jeebus' sake, WTF. Falling to 0-2 in the ACC is not a good way to start. If we weren't on the bubble before, we're surely there now. What's worse is that our schedule doesn't get THAT much easier over the next couple weeks. Between now and January 25th, we play @BC, UNC, @UVA, and BYU. Any guesses how we finish that stretch? Anyway, onto Boston College. Hit the jump.

We lost to Wake Forest. They are one of the worst in the ACC. Now we play Florida State - a team that was supposed to be pretty decent this year, but has failed to live up to expectations. Will the Hokies right the ship or move to an abysmal 0-2 in ACC play? We'll talk more after the jump. 

yup

This face sums it up nicely

Well, in the biggest no-brainer of the year, David Wilson has decided to enter the NFL draft.

Maybe there he can actually get some decent offensive coaching.

Best of luck to him. Yeah, we're sad he's not going to be tearing things up for us next year, but there isn't a person reading this blog that can argue with the decision. And I'm sure the dozen of you would agree. 

Now please let the Steelers trade up to get him!  no comments

Cherish it now. If you don't deliver a National Title in 4 years, Michigan fans will force you out.


So it’s been two days. And yeah, we’re still angry. BDubs and The Northerner summed things up nicely. Now it’s time for the closer. Rick “C Gally” Vaughn, taking the mound, after the jump…

Bulltoilet
We won that game.  This may sound like the bitter ranting of a sore loser, but that Danny Coale catch was a TD.  I don't know how the refs could overturn a call they made that showed absolutely NO sign of a reversal.  His elbow was down before the ball touched the ground, and then even after the ball touched the ground, there was absolutely no sign that the ball moved or that the catch was aided by the ground. How you overturn a pivotal call like that with no evidence for the contrary whatsoever is beyond me.  The refs decided this game and that is never how a football game should turn out.  

I'm proud of how the Hokies played today.  Justin Myer was essentially automatic (I forgive him for the miss, he probably prepped himself for the extra point instead).  Our defense was on and excited, and there is nothing that makes me happier than seeing our guys WANT to win.  Thomas was focused, DW4 was running for draft status (which is a good thing), Coale was UH MAY ZING.  All the pieces were there for us to win this game.  Except the referees.  Either way, the Hokies represented why they should be in the Sugar Bowl and here's to silencing the critics.  I'm going to miss DW4, and definitely Coale, but I'm exicted for Logan Thomas and our offense next year.  The defense is a given, I'm always excited about that.  

All in all, it was an exciting game, but a disappointing one all the same.  Thanks for an exciting, yet frustrating at times, season this past year.  And good luck to our departing players.  Sorry you didn't get to end the season with a Sugar Bowl win.  You were robbed.    no comments
