Hokies are Off, Here are the Locks of the Week
Hokie fans catch their breath this weekend and await a return to Lane Stadium against the Terps. Good chance to catch some games on Saturday while enjoying your trick or treat candy (or your kids). Also, tune out the Obama / McCain bedlam one last time before election day.
While most of the nation will be [...]
The Joy of Watching The Hokie Defense
I’m a Virginia Tech Hokie Football Fan for many reasons. Watching the Hokies in their maroon or white jerseys take the field on Saturday is one of the highlights of my week. I love Virginia Tech football, I love Lane Stadium, I love the wins, and I begrudgingly suffer through the losses. Each years brings a [...]
Immediate Impressions: Florida State Game
In a season full of drama, yesterday’s Virginia Tech vs. Florida State game provided plenty and with implications that will likely affect the rest of the Hokies’ season. Back to back losses have not been common for the Virginia Tech football program, but most fans are probably buckled in for a a roller coaster ride at [...]
Locks of the Week: Week 8
Well the headline game this weekend is in the Big Ten. Penn State faces probably their biggest obstacle on a path towards an undefeated season and national championship appearance when they face Ohio State. Though I have to admit I’m somewhat looking forward to the 8 pm EST game on Sunday night so I can watch [...]

Its All About the Tailgate
While Virginia Tech Fans are busy worrying over how the offense is going to move the ball against what is apparently a pretty stout Florida State defense, I found myself daydreaming of tailgating today. Maybe its the weather, which has turned into perfect tailgating climate. Sunshine, meat on the grill, cold beverages (brown water preferably), wearning [...]
Virginia Tech Link Feature: Hokies in the NFL
Watching Monday Night Football tonight is another chance to take in Eddie Royal, who is having a breakout rookie season for the Denver Broncos. Core Virginia Tech football fans probably all have their favorite NFL team, but like me also like to track former Hokies. Where did Matt Lehr end up this year? Is Josh Morgan getting [...]
Immediate Impressions: Boston College Game
Last nights Boston College game held true to Virginia Tech’s 2008 football season form in that it was another close game between even teams that could have easily turned on the result of any one of a number of plays. It was just another nail-bitter in a season that’s been full of them, but unfortunately the Hokies [...]
Locks of the Weeks and Boston College Game Comments
Well it seems like a month since I sat and watched a Virginia Tech football game live on TV. When you consider the off week, the no-TV Western Kentucky game, and the road trip to Nebraska, its pretty much been a month. I’ve got the TV room all ready for Saturday night’s big clash, and [...]
