Boston College @ #5 Virginia Tech


Talk about a trap game for Virginia Tech. If Duke wasn't enough of a scare this might top it. I haven't heard a lot of talk about this game which gets me a bit nervous. I'll admit the Hokies should not drop this game at Lane Stadium. However for some reason Boston College always seems to give us a fit in the regular season. If every Hokie doesn't remember that tragic game against #2 ranked B.C where we had the game won in the miserable pouring rain just to have that last second heave to destroy any chance of going to a national title game. Well we did avenge that loss later in the ACC title game but thats not the point. To elevate their status as an elite football program, VT has to win and win out to have a shot at going to Pasedena this year. Boston College has a very stingy defense this year, with a surprise star in their newly found QB. BC can beat the Hokies if we have a letdown and are not ready for what they are going to bring to the table. Good ol' Duke gave us a run for our money last week I hope that was a wake up call that week in and week out in the ACC is no joke. You have to be ready for a battle everytime. Boston College wants love and they will get it if we don't have our guard ready. I'm looking for a complete Defensive effort today. What a piss poor showing of Bud Foster's D last week. The offense carried us???!!??!?!! Well I hope Bud inspired them this week because we need the D to cause some turnovers, get this QB uncomfortable, get sacks and stop the run. The offense has to keep improving, they are playing well but they still need to improve. This is a huge game lets not look ahead to Georgia Tech to soon.
GO HOKIES!
