RemoveSnyder Posted September 4, 2018 Share Posted September 4, 2018 VT defense came to play. Hard hits all night long. The Florida athlete mystique is ... wavering. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Going Commando Posted September 4, 2018 Share Posted September 4, 2018 Foster gets them playing good fundamental football. They always cover and tackle well. It's nice to see after watching god awful soft Redskins defense. They had a lot of losses to the NFL but that VT defense from last season was legitimately one of the best in CFB and they still look very good. The offense is ugly so their ceiling as a team is only going to be so high, but they're not going to be an easy fight for Boston College or Notre Dame or Miami. Or Clemson, if they manage to win the division. Jackson is a gamer though. Not fluid or efficient from the pocket. But tough and competitive. He'll be pretty good in a year or two.

Momma There Goes That Man Posted September 4, 2018 Share Posted September 4, 2018 I consider it a failure that there isn’t a better QB on the roster, or at least far enough along to start, that’s better than Jackson Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh im not taking it for granted. 2 wins against FSU in our history and we dominated them on the road. It was a fantastic win. The defense and special teams were lighta out and the offense moved the ball effortlessly at times and showed flashes of what I hoped to see when Feunte took over. They have some things to clean up. Im just not a big Jackson guy and constantly nervous and pessimistic after so much heartbreak and letdown Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Going Commando Posted September 4, 2018 Share Posted September 4, 2018 6 minutes ago, Mr. Sinister said: Wait, @stevemcqueen1 you're a Hokies fan??????????? ???? ?????? I grew up a Tech fan. My dad went there. I was born outside Blacksburg and lived there as a kid until we moved to central VA. I was die-hard growing up but I kind of got agnostic about the Hokies when it was college time for me and I thought I might attend UVA. Felt weird rooting for the rival of the school I was thinking about going to. Particularly since I knew I wasn't going to attend Tech. But I ultimately decided to go to Richmond instead of UVA and I actually pull for both UVA and Tech in all sports now. To make it even more confusing for me, I have strong family ties to both Clemson and Georgia Tech too, and I pull for all of their teams as well. But I'd say that I pull a little harder for VT when they play each other. Although I will say I didn't love watching my Spiders get killed by UVA this weekend, but I also wasn't expecting much of a competition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Sinister Posted September 4, 2018 Share Posted September 4, 2018 Meh, I kinda know the feeling (became a huge Terps fan here, following the bball team, then transferred and eventually graduated from UMD, though I've always rooted for Miami in everything. Funny how that works. Easier these days now that they are Big 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Going Commando Posted September 4, 2018 Share Posted September 4, 2018 Yep. I don't really get the intense hatred for other schools that people have. College sports are more, well, collegial for me. I've got some kind of personal connection to half the schools in the ACC and a connection of some sort to almost every school with a D1 football team in VA. I want to see all of them do well.

Going Commando Posted September 4, 2018 Share Posted September 4, 2018 Mississippi St, Boise, and UCF are all being underrated. Tech is probably being overrated. 12 feels high. Im also a little iffy on LSU still. Their defense is legit but I don't trust their offense. Not sure what the difference between them and Michigan is.

Momma There Goes That Man Posted September 4, 2018 Share Posted September 4, 2018 12 is too high but I'll enjoy it while it lasts. LSU is still the same team they always are. Suffocating defense, good running back and pray you don't have to throw it. It's stunning to me that they somehow landed Jarvis Landry and Beckham.
