Typical East Coast bias. :rolleyes:

Thanks for putting this thread in the main forum, now let's see what the future holds. :D

uh...ever look at stats? VT gives less yards a game than any pac 10 team and less points a game than all but 2 of them and one is stanford and the other oregon. the average pac 10 team gives up over 400 yards and 20+ points a game, its not bias its just fact

2 of the top 4 teams in the BCS are from the Pac10.

Just sayin'.

Yeah. I would say the only thing that concerns me the most about tonight is Stepfan Taylor running the ball vs our suspect run defense at times, he could potentially setup Luck to have a good night. VT has a very very solid secondary. 3rd in the country in interceptions. With giving up just under 200 Passing yards a game. If Luck can be successful in primetime vs a solid secondary, it would be a step forward for something to be happy about.

However, I agree with Calebdv. Tyrod Taylor has become a very solid passer and is very Vick esk in his shiftiness and vision but with better passing efficiency and should be looked as a QB for the NFL and nothing else... I also think if were looking for a CB for the future, everyone watch Jayron Hosley tonight, he wont come out til 2012 but.. hes a shutdown corner and is tied for the lead in INTs.

David Wilson is a great RB/KR and is also fun to watch.

Im looking forward to watching both Tyrod and Luck but for 3 1/2 hours tonight I will despise Luck and Harbaugh. Go Hokies.

    • Sometimes its fun to read the threads/posts.  The panthers could literally hire a groundskeeper and we'd have a thread "improving the field for no other reason to prop up Bryce Young".  Apparently no move is ever done to actually make the team better.  All a conspiracy to just focus on Bryce Young. Or suddenly daydreaming and reminiscing about Sam Darnold when he was hated more than Bryce Young.  Its really fun to do a message board search about Darnold during that time period.   Or thinking there is just a tree that grows QB, and you can just easily go up and pluck one.   
    • Yeah okay. We as an organization have been more patient with him than many. And there has been a small parade of guys drafted since he was, also to bad teams, that have passed him. Some have lapped him. As a fan I am out of patience but he gets this year it is out of my hands always has been. I just hope the bar is higher than it has been for him.    FWIW, XL dropped two passes last year. He did do some other bad stuff, just saying. 
    • Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.
