No way the Hokies can hang with the Tiger offense. Clemson by 2 TDs.*

Strange injury report released by Tech's trainers...

VT_Football VT Football
Here's this week injury report from the trainers: Out - E Martin (AC joint); D Wang (foot). If they aren't listed they are scheduled to play

Battle's out for sure, and I doubt seriously that Roberts is going to play.

i figured it out, Roberts must have gone to see this guy:

Philly should send Michael Vick to that guy

Just talked to Dyrell and he said he wished he could go but training staff and docs wont let him. And for good reason!

Thanks for following up with Dyrell and resolving that issue. Next time you talk with him wish him well from all of us!

Good news from Daryl Slater

"No. 11 Virginia Tech should have wide receivers Jarrett Boykin and Marcus Davis for Saturday***8217;s ACC opener against 13th-ranked Clemson."

Off to Blacksburg. No posting until Monday. Keep an eye out for a good looking guy in a maroon hoodie, section 27, that'll be me.

Anyone coming down 81 should be warned there may be some backup due to late blasting. Per poster on TSL...

Any idea as to where the blasting is taking place on 81? Thanks for the heads up.

From CFB Website -
No. 13 Clemson at No. 11 Virginia Tech
Sat., Oct. 1 ***8212; 6 p.m. ET, ESPN2

This week***8217;s No. 13 team vs. last week***8217;s No. 13 team should produce a fantastic battle.

Headlined by quarterback Tajh Boyd and freshman phenom wideout Sammy Watkins, Clemson (4-0, 1-0 in ACC) is the hot topic in college football right now. Offensive coordinator Chad Morris***8217; stock is rising rapidly. His mastery of third down is stunning, having converted on 23 of 35 opportunities in the recent victories over Auburn and Florida State.

As usual, Virginia Tech (4-0, 0-0) will provide a tough test defensively. Although they***8217;ve only faced second-tier opposition so far, the Hokies rank within the nation***8217;s top six in rushing defense, pass efficiency defense, total defense and scoring defense.

The Clemson defense, which has been much less impressive so far, will have to step it up. We don***8217;t expect the young Tigers on the offensive side of the football to be fully comfortable during their first road game of the season.

Opening point spread: Virginia Tech by 7 1/2

The pick: Virginia Tech 26-24

IF anyone is traveling down 81: get off @ dixie caverns (salem/shawsville) exit and take 460 into Cburg to avoid blasting.
