“It just sucks!“
-comeback Cb Antoine Exum-
Today’s word is ………. UPSET!
The meaning of the word has sometimes been attributed to the surprising defeat of the horse Man o’ War by the horse Upset (the loss was the only one in Man o’ War’s career)
up·set (p-st)
v. up·set, up·set·ting, up·sets
v.tr.
- To cause to turn or tip over; capsize.
- To disturb the functioning, order, or course of: Protesters upset the meeting by chanting and shouting.
- To distress or perturb mentally or emotionally: The bad news upset me.
- 4. 1o-13
1Q 15:00 remaining:
Very neat looking kick-coverage tweak right here folks. You count inward as a blocker from far-Left to Middle or from far-Right to middle to determine who has who; by number. “I’ve got forty”, and so forth. However, do notice the far-left Hokie in coverage at the bottom of your screen, who in so many words Pulls (like an offensive-G) inward, and therefore ruins the Duke blocking pick-up numerology outside-in on the bottom of your screen.
However, and any Rulebook savants help me out here; does a KO constitute “possession” and therefore could this technically have been an Illegal-Shift?
p.s. watch #20 of Duke set the bedeviling tone by dogging our #2(something) out!
1Q 14:50 remaining:
10 men on or within 12’ of the Line of Scrimmage (LOS) to begin the game. Think Bud was respecting on Boone or the Duke offense? Me neither; as we have shown this very mid-1980’s 46 Buddy Ryan Chicago Bear look off-and-on all year long.
Very next play: boy can Tariq Edwards flat out tackle! Those L.C. Greenwood sized arms don’t hurt either!

This is not a penalty why again?
1Q 4:35 remaining:
STEAL of the year; taken by a Hokie that is. As “…football still ain’t called band for a reason”; as J.Stanford gets beaten like a drum in this nearly savage crackback hit on the mile-high overthrow by LT3 that near cost poor Josh his teeth. WOW! (note how Stanford’s limp body actually rotates over 120° on the play!!!) (pic: below)
1Q 0:44 remaining:
Although the play went nowhere, this was a total pancake job served up against our very own D.Hop by the right-side Duke G and Ot. YIKES!

1st Quarter/2nd Quarter boundary:
Did you catch the “plum get after you” theme up above?
One team surely came to hit and opened up like a battery of WWII German 88 anti-tank guns.
One team did not.
You do the maths…
2Q 9:05 remaining:
Watch D.Wang and follow him to a very chippy looking steal right off the edge of the pile on this one. I find it rather refreshing to see poor David pitching instead of catching vs. the rather healthy looking #92 of Duke.
2Q approximately 8 remaining:
Notice that Duke began to toggle in and out of a thirty-four defensive look at this point; down in their own Red Zone (of all places). And the game was never the same after this. As we had blocked about as good as we have in several years on my Blocking scratch-sheet up until this junction of play. How exactly did Duke screw us up like this with one less down-lineman in the game?!?
2Q 4:00 remaining:
Memo to P.A.T.T.’s: the B.Street and So.Main surgeon general has determined that if you are a P.A.T.T., or if you feel that you may be preggers with a P.A.T.T. that listening to the Time To Throw section in part II may be hazardous to your heath. As I’ma finally gonna call spades spades, diamonds diamonds, clubs clubs and hearts hearts on the sailing LT3 INT’s.
2Q 2:35 remaining:
If there is such a thing as a good hit by a K, P, or a Qb, this is it. Notice the 230+ lb. A.Boone of Duke; -who someone called a Nesbitt clone last week- blast Dadi out after the deflection INT along the Virginia Tech sideline. Boone may be rough-hewn -to be a Qb- though he’s also damn high on the Mohs Hardness Scale too boot.
