#3 Virginia Tech=38, n/r virginia=0
Dear hoo-fans: I’ll give you Virginia+37.5 points at home – whatcha say?
“We just couldn’t finish — we didn’t finish. We talk about being finishers all year and didn’t finish in the red zone today. It hurts. It doesn’t feel good.”
-Mike London-
Really … I mean really?
It hurts that you got your ass kicked at home, when you thought you were finally gonna beat-up on mighty Virginia Tech? You don’t say. That said, I thought it might actually hurt when you go back and see how your team behaved on film Coach London.
uva……………where sportsmanship goes to die.
What a total slice of Y-bone steak.
What a catty performance.
In a game that broke all 11 of the 10 Commandments it was VT that offered up a command performance; one for the ages.
That one has to be one of hall of famer in waiting Frank Beamer’s greatest wins ever; and that one will leave a mark on upstart hooVa. Make no mistake on that one folks. As Mike London is a President who should be a Senator and Frank Beamer and his Staff are by far and away the greatest coaches with the greatest team which is now officially one win away from be christened a real live Atlantic Coast dynasty.
All VT has left to do is finish a foundering Klempson off.
1st quarter, 7:36 remaining:
“So it begins…”
-King Théoden-
Watch post play as #78 just has to give Maddy some shoulder-violence a good 3 seconds after the whistle had blown. This was the first of a series, no make that a deluge of inexpensive-shots by the cheapest cowardly-lion I have seen this side of The Wizard of Oz as the hooVa players acted out and acted like total ass-holes all afternoon long. This one was not good, and it did not get any better after this, as it was all downhill as frustrated wahoo sporting ethos goes after this play.
That being said, you must give tremendous credit to the entire Virginia Tech football team that demonstrated remarkable maturity and composure while playing like a group of r-seniors, which is most extraordinary when you consider just how downright sophomoric that this 2011 VT football team truly is.
Game Duration:
Wanna sing the praises of Coach Wiles and his much depleted starting dLine that has been juggled more than a Cirque du Soleil opening act. Watch all game long as Coach Wiles defensive-linemen fought off single and sometimes double-teaming blocks to fell uva Rb’s with a single solitary hand. If this group is this good and this inexperienced, all the while being this injured; where are they come late 2013? </w0w!>
1st quarter, 2:49 remaining:
The steal by #83 on Virginia Tech long-snapper Colin Carroll at the end of the hooVa punt return is a rough one, and yet is actually a perfectly legal one … and this why you still hear me say: “football ain’t called Band for a reason folks.” However, the roundhouse right-hand punch after the whistle has blow right into the neck/throat area of poor Colin Carroll is nothing short of gutless and yellow-bellied all rolled into one. #83 for uva is a piss-poor excuse for a football player –simple as that.
1st quarter, 2:00 remaining:
If you don’t wanna call the late hit on #96 of uva on this Coale over the shoulder Willie Mays looking botched punt return; mmmmmmm-k, I’ll give you a definite maybe on that one. Though would it be a crime to call the headbutt deadball personal foul by #37 of uva on Coale after play? That medicine not strong enough for yah; ok, how about the second headbutt deadball personal foul by #37 of uva on Coale? (how many headbutts does it take to get a whistle?!?)
2nd quarter, 6:41 remaining:
Real nice steal by Lanier on #94 of uva at the end of the off-tackle zone-stretch play to Wilson around the right-End. You can not see the actually hit on either camera angle, though you can see #94 hitting the deck like a sack of potatoes; a dead sack of potatoes at that.
2nd quarter, 5:38 remaining:
On the first replay angle you can actually see Lanier with the illegal steal via a block in the back on the right-De of uva, back inside the left-hand edge of the
pocket. Ergo, some will have me say that this play does not count due to the penalty on #72.
However, try telling that to #53 of uva who simply gets pwned on this one folks. Man-o-man, what a F’n hit! D.J. Coles belted #53 so hard that he hurt #53 ancestors.
2nd quarter, 2:41 remaining:
Yah; #99 James Gayle has some fighting-mad mean in him that I do like; though this much mouth is tough to get with and it will result in an unsportsmanlike conduct call sooner or later. Wiles really needs to reign “ninety-nine” in as I saw this off and on throughout the day on Saturday. You don’t wanna try to cool down such a high reving motor too much; though you do not need the very same motor to always be in danger of a verbal red-line which could very well result in a yellow-flag either. (boom goes the dynamite)

As you can see, Virginia Tech hit a simply ridiculous amount of big-time positive Lo.FM plays up at uva on Saturday evening. Even a senior year Tyrod Taylor never went for 28 points on Lo.FM down-n-distance situations whereby VT was chasing the chain-gang down the field. That’s just sick!
Accordingly, and if you look closely, you can see the 6`7“ now 270 lb. Logan Thomas growing by size 18 leaps and bounds right before your very eyes. Dood is very good already; and I am having a tough time thinking that he is even anywhere near his O&M career ceiling.
uva on the other-hand struggled to navigate the always treacherous Lo.FM water despite the fact that Rocco came into this one sizzling hot his ownself. Rocco wet Thomas Jefferson’s bed for no less than three turnovers all by himself and consequently it sure looks like we have a front-runner firmly in place for all-A.c.c. Qb 2012 and 2013 spank you very much.
In fact uva struggled to do much of anything on offense beyond a mere three drives in the game. VT out-gained uva by a staggering 610% on the ground alone, and held uva to a impoverished 27% third-down conversion percentage all day.
“Right now I am gonna side with O&M star power to outshine uva in the end in a game that I sincerely expect to be rowdy, nasty, violent, and then I expect it to get worse.”
Tough to say that that one was inaccurate; as this one opened up feisty enough and almost closed the show by devolving into becoming way too fighty for me. As hooVa seemed to not only be ensconced in the role of the antagonist, or villain, they seemed to relish it; and that was just in the first half alone. In the closing 30 minutes of scrumming this one threatened to erupt into a full-fledged brawl from time to time that had to have Frank and his Jimmy Whitten knocked out tooth feeling nostalgic indeed. That said, for all their S talking, woofin’ and smack-runnin’, there was precious little that was authentically bad to the bone regarding these pansy wahoos when push came to shove. The Detroit Piston “bad-boys” of the late 1980’s this hooVa bunch simply ain’t. That said, try as they might, uva could not bait a highly sophomoric Virginia Tech football team into anything less than a 22 year old r-senior level of response. And the longer all of these cowardly lions cried wolf about the thorn in their paw’s the more uva looked less parts masculine and more parts massengill. As this was nothing short of a yeasty effort from a buncha vee-j’s that got road all night and hung up wet.
“LETS GO!”
“HOKIES!”
