A few years back, we were talking about what it would take for the program to take a "step forward" and start competing with the likes of LSU, Alabama, etc. Instead of taking that step forward, a few short years later, the Hokies find themselves 0-2 in the Big East.
That's tough to hear, but it's true. Yesterday's loss had many of the same ingredients as past Tech losses, with the exception of bad special teams play. Indeed, Frank has his special teams playing pretty well this year, and true freshman punter A.J. Hughes continued to impress.
