Va Tech +3.5 vs Stanford (ov/un 58.5) Mon 8:30 ET, Orange Bowl

[SmoovP]

Man, I just don't get the media's wet panties over Andrew Luck.

Locks in on his primary receiver.
Little or no YAC because of poorly placed balls.
Receivers have to stop or make big adjustment to get to the ball.

He's good, but to hear the media talk, you'd think he's the second coming of John Elway.

If VT doesn't stop the Cardinal on this drive and then firmly re-establish their running game they are probably fucked.

 

[Saw31]

Well, there's a throw worth talking about. Nice play...

If Stanford holds on and Oregon wins, the PAC 10 will finish with teams ranked 1 and 3/4. That would be pretty impressive seeing how USC is not one of the two teams...

 

[NFBuck]

VT has won at least 10 games in seven consecutive seasons, and while impressive, do they have a signature win? I mean other than beating sUCk a couple years back, I can't remember them ever winning a legit game on the national stage...

They beat Nebraska last year, granted it was early in the year before NU really started clicking.

This is the guy who the fans want to replace me with? Sheesh, look at that boring offense, he'll never win with that stuff.

They are 1-18, all time, versus teams ranked in the top five. It's about to be 1-19.

So I guess they have one, although I don't recall it.

I'm pretty sure it was in the late 90s or maybe 2000 against Cryami....I think....

 

[Jake]

Pound, pound, pound, play action wide open down the middle, TD.

 

[sammyjenkis]

That was just unnecessary.

Yep - and it was a mid-week game at that, a relative rarity back then.

Pound, pound, pound, play action wide open down the middle, TD.

Sounds like the page that was missing from Wisconsin's game-plan, you know the page labeled "WIN"
