Game Thread: Virginia Tech @ Virginia - ESPN 8PM

[Cobrabit]

VT has won the last 13 and 17 of the last 18.

UVA has greatly improved and is bowl eligible for the first time since 2011, while VT has the second longest active bowl streak (24 years including this year), behind FSU (currently 35 but this year is pending).

VT is limping into this game after having consecutive losses to Miami and GT, then barely pulling off a goal line stand as time expired last week against Pitt to avoid 3 straight losses.

While the game is at UVA, there is typically always a large VT contingent in the stands.

This could be the year UVA snaps the streak, but:

VT - 24
UVA - 20

In Fontaine tailgating if anyone is around. About 5 bourbons in...

Wish I could be tailgating. At the in-laws in WV, watching the Miami/Pitt game and finishing off my case of Dogfish Head Holiday IPA pack from last night. May need to refill for the game tonight, or switch to whatever they have in the liquor cabinet.

Beer named Dogfish? Pass.

Wow, so if UVA starts off slow that means they suck for the rest of the game.

Been trying to avoid Virginia games since early this year to try to forget that they blew us out in embarrassing fashion in our house

 

[BoiseStateFan27]

slow thread

slow game

3-0 Va tech and before this drive Virginia had only 29 yards of offense

 

[Jekku]

I was excited for this game, it's pretty shit so far though.

What a pathetic fucking effort from UVa's offense. You'd never know Benkert lit Miami up just last week.

Or lit up our defense earlier this year

 

[BoiseStateFan27]

Virginia just fumbled

At the rate this game has gone a TD by Virginia Tech could put this game out of reach

 

[BoiseStateFan27]

Virginia Tech takes a 10-0 lead

insurmountable in this one

 

[Jumpman98]

I wouldn't be surprised if Va pulls off the shocker and upset Va Tech.
