No, what's sad is getting beat by a team that Miami beat 33-17 and only gave up 95 yards rushing to (VT gave up 309) when you're supposed to be the best thing since sliced bread, best one-loss team in the country, best team in the ACC, National Title contender, etc...all that idiocy that was being bandied about before the Wreck took the Chokies down. Solid work...FAIL!!!
And I think that was one of the problems with VT getting beat. Just not ready to play and GT handing them their arses. You'd think kids would learn that just because one team that you beat has beaten a team you're getting ready to play doesn't mean you will win. I saw the same thing almost happen to GC Friday night. They got up quick on VHS 14-0 and just about quit. Had no fire and almost got beat. But back to VT, it's the same old story. Chance to actually prove something and, well, they CHOKE plain and simple. I'm a big VT fan but the truth is the truth and it's pretty disappointing to say the least. I know VT isn't on the level of a UF, Bama, Texas, or USC but heck, if they could luck into the title game you know that old saying...Even a blind squirrel can find a nut every once in a while
