ECU Game Immediate Impressions: Arrgh, Winning Ugly Can Be Beautiful

hokieg — Sat, 07 Nov 2009 20:30:24 +0000

I was in Chicago on business for this game, but was lucky enough to find a great sports bar that had the game on the big screen. That is until the Bulls vs LeBron game started, then I was relegated to watching the Hokies on a small secondary television. No big deal, I figured I'd [...]

College Football Conference Jockeying – Who’s On Top

hokieg — Wed, 04 Nov 2009 01:24:32 +0000

Based on my reading of blogs and forums its clear than Virginia Tech football fans are in some combination of despair, worry, depression, or apathy. You wouldn't think a streak of 2 losses would be so detrimental, but its been such a rapid fall from top 5 ranking to coastal division also-ran that I guess [...]

UNC Game Immediate Impressions: Didn’t We Just Watch This Game?

hokieg — Sat, 31 Oct 2009 21:06:10 +0000

With a ton of vacation days to burn in 2009, and confirmation that my kids flu this week was NOT H1N1, I made a last minute decision to drive down to Blacksburg Thursday morning and join buddies for the UNC game. Traffic on I-81 around Roanoke was a b*tch, maybe a sign of things to come [...]

Virginia Tech vs UNC Point Spread, Orange Effect Uniforms

hokieg — Wed, 28 Oct 2009 23:02:05 +0000

This is a post is NOT about the beaten to death subject of Georgia Tech blocking techniques against the Hokies two Saturdays ago. In fact, I haven't posted about that at all, though I'm sure you've found plenty of material to read on that subject on other sources. There's a big game tomorrow night in [...]

Virginia Tech Football Ramblings During an Off Week

hokieg — Fri, 23 Oct 2009 03:10:45 +0000

Off weeks have different feels depending on how your season is going and how your last game went. Virginia Tech fans seems somewhat somber this week, mostly re-evaluating where we are after a promising start but stumble in a key game at GT. If the Hokies didn't have so many guys dinged up, I'd almost [...]

GT Game Immediate Impressions: Not the Hokies Night

hokieg — Mon, 19 Oct 2009 00:59:53 +0000

We watched a pretty good Hokie football game Saturday, unfortunately it didn't go our way. When the Hokies lose, its VT fans nature (probably all loyal fans) to immediately dissect what went wrong, why it went wrong, who's fault it was, and how it needs to be fixed. That's certainly true with me and its [...]

I'm sure everyone is jacked up for tomorrow's Virginia Tech vs Georgia Tech football game in Atlanta. I was in Atlanta this week and there is a serious buzz about the game, they are calling it the biggest game for Yellow Jackets in 10 years. I've blogged many times about the fact that I usually [...]

Virginia Tech vs Georgia Tech Line Opens at VT -3 : Huge Game Saturday!

hokieg — Tue, 13 Oct 2009 01:52:52 +0000

The point spread for this weekend's huge match up between Virginia Tech and Georgia Tech has the Hokies favored by 3 despite being on the road. I expect that to move in the direction of the Hokies. Certainly Georgia Tech is a good team and is coming off a big win at Florida State (I [...]

BC Game Immediate Impressions: Beatdown

hokieg — Sun, 11 Oct 2009 13:41:21 +0000

I made my one trip down to Blacksburg for the year on Saturday, lugging the family down for a fun Hokie football weekend. It was a good one. Friends, tailgating, food and beverages, and a big Hokie win. Will Stewart called for it in his column on Thursday, and boy did we witness it in [...]

Virginia Tech vs BC Point Spread at VT -13.5; Hokies in the CFL

hokieg — Wed, 07 Oct 2009 02:43:18 +0000

Well either Vegas must not think BC is much better than Duke, because the Hokies are only favored by 3 points more over BC than they were over the Blue Devils. Vegas does like the home field advantage of Lane Stadium - I've heard its worth as many as 5 points in many betting odds. [...]
