Agree

This year there doesn't seem to be a clear superior team as has been the case the past decade or so. If VT can get hot their pitching can keep them in games and their offense will put up runs. The one thing I worry about is some of this elite type pitching other teams see regularly are our Achilles heel. You saw it this year with LSU and to some extent at Alabama. We just don't see enough of it in the ACC regrettably while a lot of the SEC teams have it. Take Tennessee for example, we just don't see someone throwing 75 regularly and you just can't simulate it.

So, I know there's a coach that can throw that hard

Stanford 9 Texas 5. Didn’t hurt them

Not sure what you're saying

That makes more sense if you’re looking historically

I can buy that the SEC isn't as powerful as usual for sure**

I think their bottom teams are being artificially propped up

I don't know what he is saying either ...

Oh but we CAN simulate it 😎**

Actually, the 75 mph thing may be something Tech is ready for due to

I actually think our team’s bat speed…likes harder throwers **

Hokies have the talent, depth, and team chemistry to go very far this year

I know our middle infield is WAY better than OkSt

Tech just needs to be hot at the right time. This team can beat anyone when
