1996 Home against ECU. Snow flurries and was windy. I had no jacket
due to not having my luggage after a missed connection at Reagan and having to drive down from DC renting from Bargain Buggies. What an adventure....but we won the game

Wow, not one player drafted in all 7 rounds. Glad changes were made.
I see where Delane did outstanding at LSU and draft. Sucks for us to lose him but happy for him.
KD and TR for Packers and Vikings.
Really excited to see what Franklin years bring us and without all the people who are finally retiring.
We need to find something new to complain about.

UCLA 67 - #1 Gamecoks 38 (in progress)
My goodness this looks like a football blowout. What an absolutely underwhelming showing by the USC women's basketball team.

I still can't believe the Duke meltdown and the UConn D + 3pt shot
That has to be one of the craziest finishes in awhile.....reminded me of 1992 except it wasn't Duke CL hitting the amazing shot off the amazing inbound pass. That UK/Duke game is still one of the best games I have ever watched. Couldn't stand either team but wanted UK to win....ironically after predicting and loving the Duke upset of UNLV. Fun times to watch basketball

I loved watching UConn win the natty a few years ago but what do you guys
Think Of Dan Hurley? His antics and whining are a bit much but are they more than other big time coaches working the refs?

Time will tell if they regulate this thing to make for more parity but for
now I'm just happy to be relevant again. Making the playoffs would be a dream.
What you say makes sense and many of us have wondered for a coupe a years how this should play out. It may be cool to form a league with some caps on overall NIL but I imagine there may be negative impacts on revenue. You could have a few levels but it's a nightmare for scheduling and would be a huge task to break up the current structure
For now, it's just great to be in a major conference and to become a good team again that can consistently beat ACC teams like Duke, GT and, after last year, UVa. I'm looking forward to beating Clemson and Miami someday. I cannot stand Miami but it's hilarious that a team not SEC/Big10 NFL Jr. East, Central was in the natty.
The other thing is that I'm thankful for an education at VPI and college football is entertainment.....as much as I fanatically attended home/away/bowl games and was even on College Gameday in 1999 for that magical year, it truly is just a wildly entertaining game to watch. Sad to see it become a pro league but at least they're not hiding it anymore. LOL

I absolutely love having this problem....it is like having the burden of
having to choose between a 2005 Madeleine Stowe and Monica Bellucci. Sheez even in Welcome to Derry Ingrid/Periwinkle is still smokin throwing the fooseball well at 67....except her dad is kind of a jerk

What would be your guess for our 2026 football record?
I know it's speculation but given the talent mix of freshman and experienced, what be your best guess?

Miami playmakers are the difference.
Their backs and receivers (and QB) played so hard every play breaking tackles and making catches. They are dangerous every time they get the ball in space.
Their secondary had a few drops that could have had UM pulling away and their D had some stupid penalties but still lights out.
If Indiana gets past Oregon, this is going to be a very interesting match up on both sides of the ball.
Are we obligated to pull for UM? I think it shows players that if you come to VT, the ACC has a path to the CFP title game.

Ole Miss and UGa. Do either beat Miami?
I think you'll see UGa win tonight and then beat UM. Miami had a huge pick6 to break that game open against OSU. They're legit but I don't think they'll beat Georgia. What say you?

Now we need Oregon and Indiana to lose
The be done with this big10 monopoly.
I actually like Ohio State better than Miami but was happy to know that some of my local OSU folks would not be gloating about back-to-back

Perhaps Indiana and Ohio State aren't the clear elite #1 and #2. Enjoying
This one quite a bit. I hate Miami but am over the Big10 and SEC worship

You're both correct. These responses had me laughing out loud. Thanks
Needed the laugh
I mean...come on....the year, the punter, two AFC teams in super bowl, the wrong name for the catch
I'll admit, I was way too obvious on this one and I apologize if I have anyone a migraine

Anniversary of the "unbelievable reception" by Franco Harris 1976
The 76 Steel Curtain did a good job and held the Raiders to 7 points despite Ray Guy throwing for 250 yards and then Franco made his historic catch.
The Steelers beat the Broncos to win their first ever super bowl
Those were the good ole days

Tennessee often seems like they're on the verge of a playoff season so it's
Great to see them keep losing....albeit this is a meaningless bowl game

They absolutely squandered their chance to win the ACC against Duke
They won't have that chance again IMO. Miami, VT, FSU, Clemson, GT, Louisville will all have strong seasons here and there which will beat UVa

Not everything is pearl clutching
If you think his behavior is becoming of a 64 year old man.....and head coach leading young men then we certainly see it differently but my take is far from ridiculous or overly sensitive.
If I were outraged and calling for fines or firing then I'd agree but I think he's a childish egomaniac that needs to be humbled.
