Just noticed that Bowling Green who we beat 37-0 early in the year when the defense was crap went 6-2 in the MAC (NIU conference) I know the ACC is weak compared to the Big 4 but that is a whole other level of weak

Worst part about it is they have a representative in the Orange Bowl.

I agree. I don't like they we are debuting another helmet (is this 6 helmets for the season?), but I like these. I kinda wish they held these off for Alabama next year. They will probably just debut another ridiculous helmet for that game.

Holy shit I've been waiting to bust out helmets like these. I'm assuming there will be a VT logo on there..?..

I would assume so. They helmets likely just came in to the equipment guys so they will start working on them. I tweeted them so we will have to see if they respond.

and thanks Lumbee for snagging that photo for us.

Not a fan of black helmets in general. Won't totally disregard them as crap until we see the final product (it can be saved). It can't be much worse than the Boise game.

Anything is better than the Hokie Track garbage we were wearing. But aside from that, I hate all of our unis from the last 4-5 years. We need to look mean, not like a bunch of trendy clowns.

They are Maroon, not black

Well shit on me. I guess I didn't look close enough. They really did look black when I first saw them. Feeling better now.

yeah...i forget who it was, but a hokie mentioned on the WC that it's like we are becoming the Oregon of the east...

the ones that i would like to see kept as our regular uniform, and only these, no more new helmets every week

these matte maroon ones

these ones: (white or maroon)

and these:

thats it.

The wife has already declared Dec. 28th a "House Divided". She didn't go to Rutgers, but growing up in NJ, she has followed them for a long time. She's a Hokie fan, but for this one game, she's going to be talking all sorts of shit.

I like the maroon and I think we should stick with that with solid maroon or white unis ala 99

well, at least if the chatter gets too unbearable, or if (god forbid) we start losing...you can end the trash talk.

Alright, old guys. There was really nothing compelling about those at all.

I like the striped shoulder ones we have now as well as the 06-08 look

 

[hokiecheme11]

Yes please -->

In regards to the '99 look - don't bite the hand that feeds you. That look is forever etched into the memories of the Hokie faithful. It would be nice to at least break out those jerseys for big games and such (maybe Bama for instance).

On the 2006 look I am fine with that. But anything after 2008 sucks balls.

 

[NickVT10]

Yes please -->

The one sleeve thing was awful. Make that jersey all maroon and im on board 100%

 

[757Hokie83]

i still think we should bring this one back...but with maroon pants

Very cool thing the team is doing for the victims of Newtown: Mindful of past, Virginia Tech Hokies honor Newtown victims - ESPN
