Virginia Tech travels to East Carolina Saturday afternoon for a 3:30 tilt with the ever-pesky Pirates. This has become as much of a rivalry game as the Hokies have had on their schedule the past 7-8 years. The game is always close, nail-biting and sometimes even heart breaking. The game with be covered throughout the mid-atlantic by ESPN on ABC, but the rest of the nation will see Western Michigan at Ohio State. If you are a Hokie watching from another part of the country or world, please try to view the game via ESPN3 or the Watch ESPN app, which should have coverage.

It looks to be a gloomy day on Saturday, but if you're headed to the game still be prepared to bring some noise because Pirate Nation will be out in full force in hopes of seeing another upset over VT.
