Re: Virginia Tech-Really??
I agree the VT/UT rivalry would become one of the better rivalries on their schedule, we all know that even though Vandy and UK are our rivals, there hasn't been much competition in the past 30 years.
VT is a perfect fit for the SEC IMO, they play excellent defense and the success of their offense will tell how many games they win. Very similar to many of the SEC teams. Their stadium is small when considered among SEC schools but they have a great fan base who travels well. The ACC is almost an embarassment, the ACC needs Miami and FSU to be great again to even make it into the talks as a decent league. But with the recent Miami stuff I imagine they are in for a few more rough years. If the SEC were to snag FSU and VT away from the ACC them it would become a complete joke.
Re: Virginia Tech-Really??
I agree, love to see VT in the SEC. that would be awesome. I have a buddy that went to VT and he said he would like to see them move into the SEC
