2011 Virginia Tech Football: What to Watch in the ACC Championship Game vs. Clemson
If our friend and consigliere Joe from The Key Play represents the ego of Virginia Tech fans, I probably represent the super-ego. Joe's the brash one, the confident one. I'm not. I'm skeptical and cynical, sometimes overly so. Therefore, whenever the Hokies look like they can do no wrong, that's...
2011 Virginia Tech Football: What to Watch vs. UVa
Virginia Tech Hokies (10-1, 6-1) at Virginia Cavaliers (8-3, 5-2) I'm going to make this quick before the tryptophan kicks in. Some other previews to check out: The Key Play, From Old Virginia and Streaking the Lawn. TKP thinks this will come down to our ability to run the ball and pressure the QB....
2011 Virginia Tech Football: What to Watch vs. North Carolina
Virginia Tech Hokies (9-1, 5-1) vs. North Carolina Tar Heels (6-4, 2-4) This is a game I think fans should worry about for a few reasons. First and foremost is the team coming to town tomorrow night is talented, well-rested and presumably ready to get the taste of a 13-0 defeat at the hands of...
Here's a Hastily Put Together Virginia Tech-Georgia Tech Preview
Yeah. This was supposed to be the big, extensive "What to Watch" post that I do every game. Then the Penn State BOT presser happened and I really just want to watch TV and Twitter in shock and amazement right now. Here's the important stuff: Tackling, especially by the cornerbacks, will make or...
2011 Virginia Tech Football: What to Watch vs. Duke
Virginia Tech Hokies (7-1, 3-1) at Duke Blue Devils (3-4, 1-2) There's a light at the end of the tunnel for the beaten and battered Hokies. Get by the Duke Blue Devils and a bye week awaits them prior to a difficult November slate. Standing between Tech and some much needed rest is a Duke team that...
2011 Virginia Tech Football: What to Watch vs. Boston College
Both teams have suffered their fair share of injuries this season and both will have key players back this week. Boston College gets running back Andre Williams back after he missed the Clemson game with an injured ankle. Meanwhile, Virginia Tech will again have the services of defensive end James...
2011 Virginia Tech Football: What to Watch vs. Wake Forest
A quick aside: A lot of the stats you see quoted here, or at least the raw data for them, comes from the outstanding site cfbstats.com. October is pledge drive month over there and I highly recommend donating to help keep that site going. It's a worthwhile cause. Injuries continue to mount for...
2011 Virginia Tech Football: What to Watch vs. Miami
Virginia Tech Hokies (4-1, 0-1) vs. Miami Hurricanes (2-2, 0-1) Hopefully we've haven't seen the best out of the Hokies yet this year and hopefully last week was the worst we'll see from them. While we've spent a lot of time discussing what went wrong for the Hokies last week and what we need to...
2011 Virginia Tech Football: What to Watch vs. Clemson
Virginia Tech Hokies (4-0, 0-0) vs. Clemson Tigers (4-0, 1-0) We're going to learn a lot about this team this week. When the schedule came out, we figured the Hokies would be sitting at 4-0 because of a toned-down non-conference schedule designed to allow for a large learning curve for its new...
What to Watch: Week 04 of the 2011 College Football Season
Four weeks into the season and we're finally hitting a high number of games between ranked teams. Ours, of course, is one of the choice offerings of the week, but there are four other Top 25 match-ups as well. Five in one week is pretty high and will likely not be surpassed the rest of the year....
