Come on guys one more play
What a joke.
With how hard wins have been to come by this year, I will take the W.What a joke.
Scales and Tweedy both played with a lot of heart today. Marshall and Bruce stood out as well. Major props to them. I think everyone knew this would be a tough game, but seeing us struggle with BC really made this season sink in for me. I'll be at the UVA game, screaming my lungs off, but I'm deeply troubled about the future of VT football.
Well, overall we certainly didn't deserve to win today with some poor play and some downright retarded coaching moves but rules state someone has to win in college and BC decided they didn't want it.
Defense played ok today. Taylor played the best he's had all year. He looked like pre-injury BT. We got a lot of sacks and I know we limited yards, but I also feel we were a bit fortunate because BC sucks. There were still quite a few mistakes they just didn't capitalize on (and some they did). The positive is the defense has improved from their horrible start (no excuse for Foster, they sucked). While still not at a level we're use to, they're heading in the right direction. Hopefully that pays off for next year.
Offense sucks. What's left to say? Martin Scales bailed our asses out with a couple of big runs today. No offense to him, but that shouldn't happen. Props to him for delivering in a case where he shouldn't have that pressure. LT was AWFUL today. I lost count of how many open check downs he missed today that would have gained significant yards. All he did was lock on to target #1 and force it. Hell, even on the Dunn TD (which was a terrible throw but a helluva play by Dunn), JC was open in the middle for the 1st down and possibly a TD but LT just kept focusing on the endzone. It's extremely troubling how much he's regressed.
The coaching was ridiculous today. Head scratching play calls and some dumbass management by Beamer. I almost punched a hole in the wall on our drive to tie the game 23-23. As soon as we cross midfield, we start playing for the FG. WTF! Go for the damn TD. Cody Journell is average at best, he's not a guarantee. What a pussy move. And Beamer's use of TOs today was beyond words. If that's the best he can do, take that privileged away from him like he's an old man that's too old to drive.
I'm really not. Its one bad year. Texas had an awful season a few years ago and the amount of talent they get is nuts. Florida had a bad season last year and they are a top 10 team this year. USC was supposed to be #1 and they wont be ranked next week most likely. Shit happens but i think we will bounce back. We have a good class coming in with some guys that could play right away and a potential huge class in 2014.
