I believe gold used to be one of the mutts' colors, along with the red and black. Their coach at the time made some reference to yellow or gold being cowardly, so Tech students started to wear yellow jackets to sporting events to mock them. It stuck. I'm pulling this from memory, but it's in a...

You would be correct. To each their own, but Dinosaur BBQ was wholly disappointing. I wouldn't recommend a southerner travel to NY for BBQ just like I wouldn't recommend a New Yorker travel to Georgia for a reuben.

Agreed. This is why I expect a possession-heavy, keep away type game. If we can put together a couple 7 minute touchdown drives, they may keep pace for a while but the body blows will pay off in the second half.

I'm a pretty regular listener to "Basketball Conference: The ACC Football Podcast" (full title in to dispel confusion on what sport its covering). They did a series of team previews for every ACC team. The Syracuse one in particular is interesting - the beat writer suggests maybe 8-4, but adds...

2009 VT was the best game experience I've had - a top 5 win, then storming the field as a student and tearing down the goalposts was unforgettable.

This is really good content, and worth a watch for anyone interested in a slightly deeper analysis than you'll get on ESPN.

FPI is from a computer. I'm not mad about this - we're just 1-0.

Already? I'll be riding this high until Friday.

I hear you, and agree with the general coaching philosophy. I'm more trying to gauge how bad this one will hurt.

Is Boyd projected to start in his stead? I'm not worried about his size, but he didn't play all that much last year. I hope we were deeper at that position.

I hear you, but the difference between 60 and 45 is pretty significant. Also, the difference between #24 and #34 is about 15 million dollars, which is the difference in tv money. We're not talking #16 to #18, we're taking tech and #24/#25.

It's that B1G tv money. The very reason Clemson and FSU want out.

Generally I agree with this statement, but I'm not convinced Louisville and VT belong on that list. Lville had a good offense last year, but only returns about half that squad. The hokies bring back almost everybody on offense (which is why they're receiving so much preseason hype) but they...

I used to root against ACC opponents out of conference. Then "conference pride" became a thing and the quality of your conference started dictating wether we may make a postseason. This year, the ACC placed 8 teams, the SEC 11. Next year, when we're the 9th best ACC team, you'll be glad our...

All three on one side of the bracket, too. Tenn or Evansville join depending on the rubber match tomorrow. On the right side of the bracket, NCSU can punch their spot with a win over the mutts. Clemson will have to beat UF twice.

I pay a lot of attention to the basement team and that was rough.

They're trash lol

NCAA's website is still showing 6pm FWIW. I've been watching all the games on ESPN's TV app.

Would have been nice to see if Cam could finish the game and save Dawson, but man Cam play well. Let's hope we're loose and it gives us an edge.
