Virginia Tech Will Play Florida State in ACC Championship Game
By virtue of NC State's loss at Maryland today, Virginia Tech will face Florida State in the ACC Championship Game at 7:45 p.m. EST on Saturday, Dec. 4 at Bank of America Stadium in Charlotte, NC. The winner will be the conference champion and receive a bid to the Orange Bowl.
This will be the second meeting between the two teams in the ACC Championship Game. The teams met in the first edition of the game in 2005 in Jacksonville, Fla. It was a game the Seminoles won, 27-22.
The Hokies will attempt to win their fourth ACC Championship since joining the conference in 2004. They won in their inaugural season in the ACC when there wasn't a conference title game and then again in 2007 and 2008 by beating Boston College in the ACC Championship Game.
A limited number of tickets remain for the game. After clinching the Coastal Division by beating Miami last week, Virginia Tech fans started gobbling up tickets. Hopefully there will be a lot of orange in the crowd next week when the Hokies take on the Seminoles.

Going to be a good matchup
I think FSU is clearly the best team in the ACC after VT, the NC State game was a hickup for them, if Ponder doesn’t fumble on that final drive he makes the TD pass and FSU wins the game.. They put up nearly as many points against the (admittedly Tebow-less) Gators as the Hokies did against UVA. I’m much more worried going into the ACC CG against them then against the Wolfpack.
I’m going to the game, so I guess we won’t have to wait long to see just how good Tech is this year. Go Hokies!
We are seriously beat up
And Ponder didn’t fuck up the last drive, Ty Jones did. He was 4 feet out of position.
This team will improve in '10... on its 16-16 conference record over the last 4 years.... after losing 20 games in the last 4 years... after having the 7th worst major-conference defense... after not even winning its own division in the ACC in the last 4.

weve got our share of injuries as well
if carmichael can’t play again, fuller’s going to have to have another big game. wide receiver depth is decimated. im sure lb’s are still dealing with previous injuries that are no longer on the injury report.

VT's Recovery This Year and FSU's Start on a Return to National Prominence
Both teams have shown a lot of character this year. VT came back strongly after those two opening losses and has played well. FSU rebounded after Oklahoma and again after those two inexplicable losses to UNC and NCSU. While one winning season does not make a dynasty (again), Jimbo has, in his first year, addressed a lot of the systemic problems that had cropped up over the last ten years or so and is headed in the right direction.
Anyway, this ACC championship is one between two real class acts and is probably going to be a very competitive game. I am looking forward to it.
