Never, never, never get tired of that picture. If we knew who the guy on the right was, he'd be our hero for life.Your Pump Up Video of the Week
For this week, forget the rules. The greatest entrance in college sports history is a requirement. If you don’t want to run through a wall after watching this, just get off the bus right now.
-------------------------
We spent a good while coming up with a way to start this week’s preview. In the end, all we could say was “Holy f***. It’s Miami.” Yes folks, there are a few great things about this weekend: It’s Miami in September.
The game is in Blacksburg. It’s a 3:30 kickoff. And to top it off, we are ranked 9th and 11th. This game is worth more than your life.

The Bad Guys
Good lord do we hate Miami. I mean, HATE them. Watching that program disintegrate over the past few seasons has been nothing short of fantastic. But if you’ve watched ESPN over the past week, Miami has now become the single greatest team in college football history. There is little doubt that they will play Michigan for the National Championship. Yeah, they looked good last Thursday night. But wow, they beat Georgia Tech. A team that runs the wing-T or some shit. Whoopie.
They get to play a real football team this week. Jacory Harris is going to be crying about something other than having a completely made up first name. He’s challenging Zac Lee for worst name ever.
As many of you know, the Hurricanes sent back like 5,000 visitor tickets for our consumption. We bought them all in about 20 minutes. Still, there’re a record number of Miami fans making the trip. So expect to see all ten of them rocking out the upper stands.

The Hokies
Ok, so that last game kinda sucked on both sides of the ball. But now we have Virgil back. And even though we still have Voldemort running the offense, we still have faith that Tyrod will over rule him. This is the game when the defense needs to make some noise. We are currently ranked way lower than 1st in total defense (77th to be exact, a spot usually reserved for our offense).
Our team is still built around defense, and a lot of the struggles have been because of the terrible offense. But if we are to win this game, we need to have some pretty stellar defensive plays running on SportsCenter after this game is over. The offense? Well, hopefully they won’t suck.

The Game
There’s not much bulletin board material out there this week. Randy Shannon isn’t an idiot. He knows Lane will be loud, even without motivation. And it will be loud. Enter Sandman will destroy you. We assume there will be a flyover, and it will be pimp.
As for what this game means… well it pretty much means everything. Georgia Tech now has a loss, and Miami appears to be our main competition on the Coastal side. A loss here and it’s a pretty rough road to climb back to the top. Our season depends a lot on a game in September. College football is the greatest sport ever*.
*Please note that this would be the case even with a playoff system for the National Championship. We hate everyone that is keeping this from being a reality.

The Trip
Your humble editor, Maniak, and eight other people have rented an RV for the weekend. We’ll be driving down from DC Friday night, rocking out to a brand new 4-hour powerhour. Once in Blacksburg, we’ll be meeting up with the Northerner for further debauchery. The reason I say this is that should we not return, it’s been a fun time and thank you for reading.
Email us if you wanna meet up. The price of admission is booze.

Replacement Offensive Coordinator for the Week A marshal took care of Marshall. We need a badass duck to take care of these Miami bitches. We know what you’re thinking. Coach Bombay? Charlie Conway? Adam Banks? Softies. All of them. At least in comparison to our man…
