That Stanford Team was really good

They only lost one game that year, to the eventual national title runner up Ducks of Oregon. Pretty sure they wanted to let everyone know that they were that good and VT was just on the receiving end. Oh if we only had playoffs back then...

Yep, but we also had the same OC since 2001 who shouldn't have been an OC

He clowned Bud til the very end with those endless pre-snap shifts. **
Pride_and_Joy • 02/23/26 09:52 AM ET
Yep, it exposed the hidden coverage
Seikoh_04 • 02/23/26 03:14 PM ET
3 tight end alignments with 2 shifting sides on any given play.
Hokiefied • 02/23/26 11:10 AM ET
Their DC also clowned our OC. 284 total yards and 12 points. **
Hate2SeeItEnd Hokie • 02/23/26 10:10 AM ET
Yeah, but who didn't clown our OC? Bud is a HoFer. Stiney is not. **
Pride_and_Joy • 02/23/26 10:57 AM ET
True that.**
