As much as he has contributed, it's time.

Awesome! They're going to have to gut out some wins this year, instead of letting close ones become losses.

Recruiting is going to come down to winning some games we're not supposed to win.

Recruiting is going to come down to winning some games we're not supposed to win.

We have for the most part played very well in these high profile non conference games at the beginning of the season, just can't get over the hump and finish.

A big win in the 'Shoe could go a long way. It will be tough to pull it out. But if the Offense shows up in any sort of way... We'll have a shot.

Michael Brewer and Holland Fisher officially enrolled at VT on tuesday

Michael Brewer and Holland Fisher officially enrolled at VT on tuesday

We'll see how the summer session goes wrt the QB battle, but I think Brewer may be the wild card in how far this team goes this year. Our receiving corp SHOULD be much improved, running game should be better...

And oh yeah... I am super excited about Fisher finally being on campus. He is straight up chiseled and looks the part. I have high hopes for him. He could be a special player for us, one of those guys that don't come along very often.

Looks like Brewer is fitting in just fine in the Burg and with our OL.

 

[Forty_Sixand2]

I love that more than I probably should, ha ha!

Excellent. He's been here a week and he's already bonding with his O-line.

Phil Steele's Preseason All-ACC team: Phil Steele

Kind of laughable that he has Knowles as a 4th team member. By season's end I don't even think Knowles will be 4th on the team in receptions. Corey Marshall taking a year off, yet debuting on the 4th team defense.

Y'all are allowed to win every game in 2014 except one
I will let you figure out which one shouldn't take long just look to your left
did you see the clue

whoever said "do we play Michigan this year?" punch yourself in the face

Given recent history, its totally reasonable we lose to W&M and beat tOSU.

Well, Andy Biter has finished ranking VT's opponents....Better know a '14 opponent: Ohio State - Roanoke Times: Andy Bitter Virginia Tech Football

1. Ohio State
2. North Carolina
3. Duke
4. Miami
5. Pittsburgh
6. East Carolina
7. Georgia Tech
8. Boston College
9. Virginia
10. Wake Forest
11. Western Michigan
12. William & Mary

Aside from Ohio State, VT should be the favorite or at least have a chance to win the rest of the games. Predicting a 9-3 record....assuming the O-line improves from last year and the QB (whoever that may be) can avoid costly mistakes. The lack of depth on the o-line is what scares me most. Hoping Loeffler has some new tricks up his sleeve.

 

[757Hokie83]

i think UVA is too high on that list

 

[Forty_Sixand2]

This is a schedule and season where 11-1 would not surprise me and 6-6 would not surprise me.

UNC and Pitt are on the road. ECU is always tough for us. Duke is decent. BC is never a piece of cake. I feel good about Miami, UVA, W&M, Western Michigan and we seem to have GT's number (though it is always very close).

If I had to predict with no knowledge of Brewer, I would say 9-3 with losses @OSU, @Pitt and one of Duke/BC/UNC.

ooooo nice. William and Mary game moved to 4 PM, will be shown on ESPPNEWS.

Although now i'm scared, is this ESPN's hint that they're prediciting an upset?
