Can't find one in Roanoke, VA. Annie Moore's, Lion's Head and Flanary's are permanently closed. MSA population in 2020 was 315,251. Checked down in Blacksburg area and looks like nothing for the Hokies either. That's another 162,958 people. So we got about 500K without in a 50 mile radius.

What?!? There's like 300 Irish bars in Blacksburg

I dunno if it matters but the FSU OC was suspended for the game.

Florida State football will be without OC Alex Atkins for Week 0 against Georgia Tech

FSU coach Mike Norvell is excited for game week against Georgia Tech. However, he will be without one of his assistant coaches.

They’re already getting excuses lined up for their imminent defeat.

Is an Irish pub that serves mocktails actually an Irish pub, though?

Peiple don’t typically go to a pub to get wasted. That’s an American concept.

If you're not wasted when you arrive, you've already missed the point.

Gleneagle. It’s pretty nice so far except for no AC.

No AC? Lol, you sound like poverty

You talking US or world wide?

US, of course. Scotch-Irish won't live just any damn where.

Non-america sounds like it sucks

Only 3 Sophmore starters for both sides of the ball!

My prognostication: We will go as far as our LB corp allows us. Give 'em hell, Kyle and Trenilyus.

I have it on good authority that Efford turned into a man during the off season. I'm not cautiously optimistic, I'm hide the women and children optimistic.

Hmmm not sure the flag is hung right but appreciate the effort

Disagree. I see up with the white and gold and down with the red and black

Things are better at the hotel. I was starting to get concerned. We were only Tech fans on our bus from Shannon. After stops at 3 other hotels, we finally saw some other Tech folks.

The game is Dublin

Might as well post this here. After listening to the on-demand rerun of SiriusXM “Full Ride” today and going to the 2 segments with GT ties (Wes Durham, Tom Luginbill) surprisingly the opinion on Saturday is not what you think.

Durham feels that FSU wins “comfortably” by slowing the game down and running the ball. Pointed out how bad GT was against the rush last year. So more or less GT will have to prove they can stop FSU’s running game. He feels they will not make DJ U throw the ball much down field. Durham does have a lot of positives to say about the O, including throwing out Leo Blackburn finally being healthy. But he doesn’t think the GT D can do enough to give them a shot to win in the end.

And now the flip side.

Luginbill thinks this is a tight game late in the 4th quarter IF one stat holds…..

If King doesn’t have 1-2 INT’s in the stat column, GT with all the returning experience and overall skill on offense can win this game. Luginbill praised the talent level on GT’s O combined with Faulkner’s play calling.
