In my mind, Saturday is a must-win if we are going to get to a bowl game.

 

[IamThunderbolt]

That’s fair, but I say more of a can’t lose.

Definitely need the next two and then hope someone else shits the bed against us later on.

VPI and Pitt

Then one of Cuse or State.

Possibly Duke depending on Leonard's status

How stout is VT’s Defense?

middle of the road (ish)

If you believe SP+, very slightly better than WF (51st in the country vs. 53rd for WF). If you like the following chart (which, unlike SP+, is not adjusted for competition), slightly worse than WF. Either way, better than our first four opponents and not (nearly) as good as Clemson.

Combining the last two posts: Wake's starting center, @thatguy2016, was Zach Tom.

I'll duck for cover after this one: KW3 had 3 carries for 11 yards that day.

ugh

2019 was my first visit to Lane Stadium. Very cool gameday experience, but I was about to take swings at a couple of VT fans on my way out...

On Clawson's radio show, he mentioned that Death Valley and Lane Stadium are very hard places to play, but the Clemson fans are pretty hospitable and diplomatically said the Tech fans are very "passionate."

And we have to play them in Durham for the second year in a row so I hope that we get screwed by the schedule.

Their fanbase sucks.

Hey all, just wanted to bump Blogger So Dear's podcast one more time before gameday. Listen here for all the analysis, keys to the game and predictions.

 

[BirdinBama]

VT fans are the fuckin worst!

Raucous Wallace Wade stadium. Crazy intimidating

Thank you Doc for that assessment. Hope you and the fam are doing well?

It’s game day - let’s go, Deacs!

The excitement for this one is palpable…

Peeps are way more excited about the Minnesota fan 😂

The weather here in NC is a cold rain. Not sure if that'll extend up to Blacksburg, although it should all be out of the area by noon.
