GT saved the Gator Bowl in 1956 from probably going broke

Yes, we gave up the Sugar Bowl to save the Gator.

What's the back story on this?

What's the back story on this?

Bobby Dodd in "Dodd's Luck" said some GT people worked with the Gator Bowl and he was helping them out

The bag man from Aubie paid better apparently....

UVA's offense struggling is not a good look for GT's defensive performance last week.

I was thinking the same.

After seeing replay just a complete breakdown by VA

 

[MikeJackets1967]

It looks like VT will possibly be bowling because they lead Virginia 14-0 in the 2nd quarter and they play Marshall next Saturday

 

[MikeJackets1967]

Virginia Tech leads Virginia 14-0 at halftime

I guess they found a 12 game ? This would only be 5 wins

VT plays Marshall at home on December 1st. I think Virginia Tech will beat Virginia and Marshall and qualify for a bowl game with a 6-6 record.

It would actually be pretty sweet to see VT beat UVA then still go on to lose to Marshall somehow.

It would be funny as hell to see VT's plans go asunder

It maximizes agony of both fan bases. UVA still not knowing how to beat their redneck brother and VT finding a way to lose to Old Dominion and Marshall in a single season. Too bad it won't happen
