Even we still don't know how good we really are haha. Sometimes we look like the Patriots and sometimes we look like Kansas.

the hokies are a fan base that I cannot be nice to. They've earned that distinction honestly.

has bad apples. I like to think VT and Clemson are two of the best fanbases in the country and I've never had an experience that made me think otherwise.

TheKeyPlay.com is a great website to read if you want in depth analysis on VT.
Short summary of our team:
Offense has been rolling this year. JUCO transfer Jerod Evans has been one of the best newcomers in the country this year and his numbers are very similar to DW4's. Our top 3 receivers are as good (not better than) as anyone in the country, but after that there is a significant drop off. Running back has been a big concern has Jerod leads the team in rushing.
Defense has had a big time bounce back year ranking in the top 20 in pretty much every major statistical category. Woody Baron has 5 more TFL than any other interior lineman in the country and DE Ken Ekanem is one of the best in the ACC. Linebacker play has improved tremendously and our DB's have been lights out down the stretch. I believe VT has the most complete defense Clemson has seen since Auburn.
Special teams play has been excellent as well. Joey Slye, our kicker, leads the ACC and we have blocked multiple kicks throughout the season.
On paper, Clemson is much more talented and has more depth. However, If Clemson isn't sharp, VT can make them pay.

Thank you
How's the O-Line? Have they faced anything like they are going to see from our D-Line?
And will you be one-dimensional without a running threat
Legit questions (haven't seen VT play) not being difficult...

Our O-line has been solid. I wouldn't say they're world

beaters, but they have been consistent. Wyatt Teller our left guard is a former Army All-American and is a bulldozer. I don't think they've seen anything like Clemson's front 7. There was a ton of hype about Tennessee's front seven (lol), but they were nothing like Clemson's.
I think the biggest concern for Tech is if we're going to be one-dimensional. Our run game is a weak point. Fuente is going to have to use quick passes and misdirection early to try and get Clemson's front 7 off balance. If he can't do that, then it could be a long night.

Against the second worst division in the power 5. And one of your losses came against the dead weight of the first worst division in the power 5. Nothing like playing chump change to boost those stats.

I mean that's your opinion. I'm not here to argue. VT is a good team when they show up, which we've done 9 times. We're a bad team when we don't show up which is what we've done 3 times. We'll have to play near perfect to compete with Clemson.

My thoughts exactly. But I did not want to bring up the "B" word.
