Turkeys vs Pirates

VT is terrible but always plays us tough.

They're not going to score against us. But we probably won't be able to score against them. It might be a repeat of this but with us:

Hokies do not convert on 4th down with 1:47 left in the game
 
The Pirates did a great job after a horrendous start. The ridiculous call that the intercepted pass by the Hokies on which there was a pass interference flag thrown that the refs then ruled a twenty yard fumble through the air and therefore no interference fired up the coaches, team and fans. Pirates put 28 unanswered on the board after the travesty of this call. Thanks ACC crew.
 
On the drive home from the game we all talked about how much we appreciate Beamer agreeing to play ECU home and home. I think it stems from his remembering when Va Tech was an outsider in his playing days and early coaching career before getting in to the Big East. Not many coaches would do this, but Beamer seems willing to take on a regional non-conference rival with a good program, even if it means some losses. He subjects himself to a lot of fan discontent, as evidenced by their melt-down on on their board tonight.
