Week 5: Virginia Tech @ Cincinnati (in Landover, MD) (Sept. 29, 2012)

He is amped for this game, we need this. He didn't get that wide open throw and he is responding by working harder. This is what we need from him.

And as I'm typing this -- Beiro fail, nice INT

 

[dngrcnnn]

Well that seems about right.

/sigh

 

[VTfoozball]

They run a play with our slowest RB to the outside?? And then LT misfires on a easy pass. That's the story of the season

On what planet was that holding? He planted him - looked like a great block to me.

 

[dngrcnnn]

At least we won't be breaking in a new QB for Alabama next year? Right guys? Silver lining? Positive whatever?

that play with our slowest RB worked beautifully, minus the hold, which was not necessary to spring him for the TD. Don't blame the playcall there.

Looked like holding to me. After Scales was free. What a waste.

 

[m477hokie]

That might have been the theory, they expected a short run with our bruiser and went outside, nothing wrong with that. Refs are doing too much in this game, they have called a lot of false starts on them, but still, I think the calls have favored them.

It took forever for Scales to get around the edge. The longer you have to hold the block the more likely a hold comes. And it was a hold

 

[m477hokie]

Just as I say that - we really got away with one there, Exum was all over his face

 

[dngrcnnn]

Color me surprised. A short side option.

all of that I understand. None of that is relevant. The hold happened after Scales was sprung.

 

[hokiegrad]

keep those hands down!!!

 

[Forty_Sixand2]

How ready are Riley and Tookes?

 

[m477hokie]

I think we have our running back. Difference maker right there.

 

[VTfoozball]

How ready are Riley and Tookes?

How can they be worse than Exum?

 

[Forty_Sixand2]

Nice drive! Holmes looking like he was talked about. Logan actually handing it off on the read option.

 

[VTfoozball]

Is the outside stuff setting up the inside? Sure looks like it

Any DC worth a crap should know that LT keeps it almost all the time and he's probably told his players. LT needs to make better decisions with it.

This is key...
