Fresh off a thumping of the swagger-staggered Miami Hurricanes, the Hokies
hit the road for the first time all season to face Duke. A letdown was
inevitable ... it was only a question of how big it would be. On top of that,
throw in a Duke team that is no longer the pushover they used to be and all of a
sudden the Hokies had a real fight on their hands. David Cutcliffe is proving
once again that he is one of college football's best teachers, especially when
it comes to offense and QBs. He has Duke on the right track and if QB Thaddeus
Lewis can stay healthy, the Blue Devils have enough in the arsenal to be
challenge for every team left on their schedule. As for Saturday, the Hokies
will take the victory, breathe a sigh of relief and hopefully learn from some
major mistakes.
This was a game that was one part sloppy, one part surprising and one part
alarming ...
