Interesting stat

Tryrod hasn’t had a rushing TD yet this season, but he gets one today!

Let's not start

wasting timeouts early again.

Also, Billy Hite’s play calling in the red zone is so predictable. It’s so annoying. You can’t run PA on 3rd and middle or 3rd and long because the ends are going to be pinning their ears back. Sure enough, that happened and Tyrod was forced to scramble.

Great run blocking

from the left side of the line and from the wide receivers so far. Looking good, guys.

That's Mike Marscovetra

in at QB for BC. Highly thought of freshman from New Jersey. Interesting that Tuggle isn’t the one who went in.

I think the subs

Were to give Shinskie and the line and chance to see the game from the sidelines and to send a message. I wouldnt be surprised to see all of them back in on the next drive.

I’m glad Stiney didn’t shit all over the vote of confidence I gave him.

wow. this is unreal.

they’re getting really good. like, scary good.

When has Stiney had faith/competence enough to go for the kill in the second quarter? When has Tyrod Taylor been a good passer? When has there ever been anything to complement a great rushing attack?

Bud has a free pass to just tee off on BC with the blitz.

yeah ...

 reminds me of when glennon was qb for us and couldn’t run for his damn life.

i still contend put a good ol in front of sg and he’s a very solid (not great) d1 qb.

5 of 7

on 3rd downs. That is a huge, huge stat.

The Raycom

pxp guy just called him Stanley Wilson. I’d be happy if he became the same kind of running back as Stanley. You know, without the coke problem.

Wow. Just. Wow.

34-0 at half. I never would have imagined this. Defense has been getting to Shinskie no problem. Play calling has been excellent and so have Tyrod and Ryan. The only first half I can compare this to is the Maryland game in 2004. Incredible performance so far.

Force a three and out and show them the miracle comeback has no chance.

Ugh

Defense doesnt look good on the first two plays this half. And another big penalty. The only good thing is that if the D sucks this half, Its something the coaches can use to teach this upcoming week. But we can’t give up any momentum changing plays early this half on either side of the ball.

started a bit late

they got into it, i am sure foster will chew some ass too.

best case scenario

VT gets out with a convincing win, no injuries (knock on wood) and some teachable moments.
