Bud Elliott over at the mothership says Virginia Tech has a very strong defense and some questions on offense.

Virginia Tech has long been known for defense and special teams carrying its offense. This year's Hokies are likely to fit that mold, as head coach Frank Beamer discussed during the ACC Football Kickoff.

Beamer:

"If you're solid on defense, that's a great start. And if you kick the ball well, that takes you up a notch," Beamer said. "And then I think, on offense, where we are this year, it can come along [slowly] and take advantage of its opportunities and help to win football games."
