Many are not going to like your post but it’s hard to argue your point.

The Hokies have the talent to compete with any team and win. Many would probably say VT should have beaten Bama in game one. At this level of play it takes talent, execution, and game IQ to win. It takes having a confidence that is borderline cocky. This team has the talent. But they haven’t executed when needed and they seem to lack confidence at times and a killer instinct to put games away. To ignore this or say it’s just bad luck only contributes to a continued pattern resulting in outcomes we don’t want. The ladies can do this. They have the talent. Step on the field and up to the plate today and use this talent with the confidence you are better, execute the smallest of plays to perfection, and play smart with a chip on your shoulders. No free passes for Bama today. Make them earn everything and if the series falls their way we will tip our cap to them. I’ll be watching with the belief we are the better team and can take two today.

Yes they have lost some big games, but they have won some too. The
BEST2VT • 05/18/25 11:23 AM ET
Win the first game and our odds of winning the second increase dramatically
TheAmishHokie • 05/18/25 11:17 AM ET
Well yes…

For entertainment, we beat bama twice. Oklahoma will embarrass us.**
SuperFeHokie • 05/18/25 10:35 AM ET
Doubt it. Hope we get the chance to see
hokiepro • 05/18/25 11:19 AM ET
Oklahoma will embarrass Alabama also.

Sadly, I agree!

I believe we are the better talent team or evenly talented but it really
SuperFeHokie • 05/18/25 10:17 AM ET
We won there once, beat Stanford x3
hokiepro • 05/18/25 10:03 AM ET
Stanford is not Bama (SEC) we are 2-8 vs bama.may win one definitely not 2 **
SuperFeHokie • 05/18/25 10:21 AM ET
Previous season's meetings mean nothing except in their heads and hearts
TomTurkey • 05/18/25 11:27 AM ET
We are ABSOLUTELY capable of winning today.
vt49701 • 05/18/25 09:53 AM ET
Capability mean nothing. Africa is capable of being a world power & you lol**
SuperFeHokie • 05/18/25 10:28 AM ET
Africa is not one country so it has no capability of being a world power.
laphroaig • 05/18/25 11:12 AM ET
And capability fuels the ability. Go Hokies!
TomTurkey • 05/18/25 11:33 AM ET
I think we will beat Bama,they are too cocky.**
Rahvatech • 05/18/25 09:48 AM ET
If we do beat them (and I think we can) this will NOT be the . . .
MidloHokie • 05/18/25 10:53 AM ET
I have never been in their locker room so I don't know.**

Odds don't count if it happens to me!**
TomTurkey • 05/18/25 11:50 AM ET
So you're saying we have a chance? YES!**
jesuisvtguy • 05/18/25 11:17 AM ET
The HOKIES easily could have won game 1; Bama got some breaks that…
TomA • 05/18/25 11:01 AM ET
Whats the conditional prob they win game 2 after winning game 1? ;)**
U2Hokie • 05/18/25 10:19 AM ET
Know you're teasing, but I would say they're almost completely independent!
js93 • 05/18/25 10:20 AM ET
What are the chances one player hits multiple home runs in one game?
laphroaig • 05/18/25 11:18 AM ET
As Pete 'preaches,' "live in the moment!"**
TomTurkey • 05/18/25 11:51 AM ET
We are Virginia Tech!
VPI71GC • 05/18/25 09:33 AM ET
We are 2-8 vs Bama. Do the statistics. Meaning the probability is very low.**
SuperFeHokie • 05/18/25 10:31 AM ET
Results from 2000 & 2014 have zero relevance.**
