I hate to see it with Beamer.
I do too. I mean, this is the guy who brought our program from nothing to a team that's regarded as a perennial top-25. Clearly undeserved this year, mind you, but still... VT was *nothing* before CFB, and I have the very real fear that if he is forced out sooner than he'd like that we'll regret it for the first two or three new coaches before we (hopefully) find someone that can get us over the hurdle.

But hey, the sun is back out, the birds are singing, and (courtesy of a former VT and current 'skins player) I'm on my way to see the Skins/Cowboys game tonight with some friends... GO COWBOYS! :) :)

Well damn if that doesn't make you wanna kick the dog.

Ok it's official... I'm cursed. 0-3 in seven days. If you guys want someone to lose next week just let me know and I'll root for 'em... it's the kiss of death!

We got the same power here so far this season. Bama is the only team powerful enough to escape. I mean, AU is 2-0. Out of the thousands of members on this board, we might've had one that rooted for BSU against you guys. So, we kinda got that bad taste in our mouths when it comes to the games when we haven't really got a dog in the fight. But, look on the bright side. Like I said earlier in this thread, you guys were paying the penance for not beating BSU when you lost to JMU. And it really worked. The immediate effects are that Boise lost all but one of their first place votes. So, thanks for taking one for the team so to speak. Although, as bad as the ACC has been so far, you guys are still 0-0 in conference and have as much chance as anyone to win it.

Now VT knows that they can't 'Mail in' a performance.
The alternative is that VT went from being a good team last year to a also ran team this year. I guess we will have to stay tuned to see which team shows up.
