Week 3: Virginia Tech @ Pittsburgh (9/15/2012)

[HokieChamp]

Just a thought. Pitt's coach use to be at Wisconsin, known for having a powerful running attack. While they've sucked the first 2 games, it seems like what he learned at Wisc. is matching up well against whatever Foster is doing. Pitt is absolutely destroying our defense. We've got an 8 man rotation and not one of them is any good right now.

Also, the offense is throwing up on itself again. And now I think we've got a bad problem. Logan Thomas can't run an offense unless its a no huddle, limited play offense. Anything else and he struggles to make reads, audibles, etc. We're not going to get to the level we expect if he can't get better. With the new pieces this year and his progression last year, it was expected for him to shoulder the load. He's not meeting expectations right now.

Lots of football left though. We'll see how it plays out. Don't jump ship just yet. If we're still getting our ass handed to us in the 4th, jump all you want.

I'm passing out life jackets now with that last pick.

What an awful throw/decision

WR was open, just an awful throw

What an awful throw/decision

Good decision. Fuller was pretty open. It just sailed horribly.

Whatever George Whitfield taught him in the offseason, he needs to forget immediately

 

[NickVT10]

LT just mouthed his arm was hit on that throw as well...

 

[NickVT10]

Replay showed pretty well it was just bad mechanics

 

[Hokie200proof]

This is going to be one of two things -

1) a character building, come-from-behind win
2) a question-everything loss

 

[Hokie Swagger]

games done. cant stop them from doing anything. we are making a terrible team look amazing.

 

[NickVT10]

Our Defense is soooo bad today

 

[HokieChamp]

Well, that's it for the half. I'm about one Pitt TD away from firing up the PS3, setting the difficulty level to Rookie on NCAA 13, and beating Pitt 200-0

 

[Hokie Swagger]

softest coverage ever

 

[Hokie200proof]

Now looking forward to this bullshit business dinner I need to go to (in Paris for work)

 

[NickVT10]

Blitz cant get there, WRs running wide open, DL getting manhandled. Our Safeties are playing like shit.

 

[Ragingcroc]

WHY AREN'T WE CALLING TIME OUT

 

[HokieChamp]

Guys, I know what it is...I had to wash my VT jersey the other day...it was seriously ripe, but obviously, I've jinxed us.

 

[NickVT10]

If the second half goes like this, im just going to hit myself in the nuts with a rubber hammer and call it a day

 

[Hokie200proof]

You want MORE 1st half?

 

[HokieChamp]

WHY AREN'T WE CALLING TIME OUT

Since we can't score, the less time on the clock for them, the better I guess.

Since we can't score, the less time on the clock for them, the better I guess.

How do you know? Maybe they fall asleep or something. You have to be aggressive when you're down 18 points.

 

[HokieChamp]

Well, if it comes down to a FG to win the game for Pitt, at least we'll have a shot.
