Week 4: Virginia Tech v Bowling Green (Sept. 22, 2012)

New week. Clean the vomit from your teeth and regroup.

well, with the way we played saturday, i'd be lying if i said i was 100% confident.

Well, regroup anyway.

Maybe some of the puke taste needs to stay as a reminder.

My new season prediction:

We blow out FSU (who is top 3 at the time) because we have no business winning the game but it is at night at home and we seem to win those.

We run the conference schedule (Duke, UVA, BC, Miami, UNC).

We lose to Clemson and possibly Cinci (because FEDEX sucks balls)

8-4, 9-3

Having a hard time getting the fuzzy feeling off my teeth as well.

I say BGSU are far from pushovers. I watched part of their first game @ Florida and they played them tough and played until the end. Their other loss was a close one to a good Toledo team (who in turn took a ranked Arizona to overtime). They better not come out flat and take this team seriously. BG will smell blood in the water and try to come out and punch them in the mouth, early and often.

I think we will come out looking like the team we were supposed to be this season. I know Foster is not going to let last week happen again. He will literally take a human life on the sideline if it does. It took a spanking last year to wake us up, i think it will again this year. LT is going to watch the film and see how bad his mechanics have been and fix them this week and come out throwing better balls.

I don't think we beat FSU or Clemson, and then we also lose to Cincy, UNC or both - at least 1 more game we shouldn't lose

Unfortunately, I think our 10 win streak ends this year, and also the more impressive, DB draft streak that goes back to 1999, unless Exum moves back to saftey and has a big finish to the year

 

[NickVT10]

10 win streak also includes the bowl game so we have a chance even at 10-3

 

[robV703]

I think there's a good chance we lose 2/3 to UNCheat, Clemson, FSU, but even when I thought we were a bit better than we appear to be now there was a good chance that would happen. We have two games to get things figured out before ACC play. I still think we end up in the ACC championship game. 10 wins is not out of the question with the bowl game.

We getting better today!

 

[MattB4VT]

im guessing losses to clemson, fsu, and either unc or cincy. (preferably cincy so it wont fuck us out of ACC race) but if we can get some help, we could still make it to ACCCG. uva already lost to GT. so thats good. now just need GT to lose again. bc even if we lose to fsu and clemson, as long as GT loses again in conference, then we still in position.

who is to say win number 9 doesnt come in a spoiler/shocker ACCCG upset of number 2 in the BCS FLorida State??? win number 10 comes in the orange bowl versus Louisville.

one can dream, but this is also feasible.

Logan Thomas 3⃣ ‏@Lthomas_3

Thank u all the fans that made the trip. We WILL be better.

 

[Jhalf]

Im not ready to give up the 10 win season hopes, but i think this weekend will be telling. If we come out as the team we can be I think we still have a chance at a BCS bowl and a ten win season.

 

[hokiegrad]

10 win streak also includes the bowl game so we have a chance even at 10-3

and the ACCCG, if we make it, so we could even go 10-4.

But let's not get ahead of ourselves. We need to worry about BG right now. Those of you that have seen them play this year... what's the skinny? Strengths and weaknesses?

 

[VTscores]

I predict that the Pitt loss will at least wake them up and prevent an embarrassing loss to Bowling Green.

This is important, since my wife went to Bowling Green.

I am slowly convincing myself that Logan Thomas has an injured right hammy or knee, & that is messing up mechanics. Otherwise I am clueless.

That would make soooo much sense. Both Logan's inaccuracy in the passing game and the lack of QB runs could be explained by a leg / knee injury.

Hopefully it will be Newsome. Hey maybe that's why Stinespring is in the booth this year. He knew how bad the offense was going to be

Logan was banged up a bit but as far as I know he does not have any hammy or knee injury currently.... I have been wrong before though...

If he does have an injury (this is pure speculation on my part everyone) then the coaching staff would want to keep it on the DL for sure.
