OT: North Carolina Vs. Virginia Tech

Giovanni Bernard. I like that. It's a prototypical ACC running back name.

Maroon Helmet.
Orange Jersey.
White Pants.
That's somethin' you don't see every day.
November 17th, 2011 at 8:49 PM ^
....the importance of dressing with the lights on, unless her husband is home now and you're in a hurry.

VA Tech looks awful in those uniforms. They should stick with the all maroon when at home.

Rooting so, so hard for the Heels. If UNC wins then the UVA/Tech game next week will be for all the division marbles. If you'd told me before the season that in November, UVA would be in better position to win its division than Michigan, I'd've slapped you for lying.
November 17th, 2011 at 9:19 PM ^
.....which is why I am still swearing under my breath about that fumble in the red zone. What is one of the lessons we learned at Michigan? "Hold onto the damn ball..."
November 17th, 2011 at 9:41 PM ^
Man the ACC is just like the Pac12, except there's no Oregon..... or Stanford.... or USC...
November 17th, 2011 at 9:47 PM ^
....no Washington, Arizona....not even a UCLA....

It's sort of an ABC after school cautionary tale, isn't it?

What? UNC has been out of the ACC race for a long time.

I think Clemson and VT are better than those three, and GT is better than UCLA. ACC was a joke when the Big East had good teams (circa 2006-2008). Now the roles are reversed, except nobody in the Big East has a football culture, so it's even sadder.

just saying, My lancers (University of Windsor) smoked VT this summer in an exhibition game.
November 17th, 2011 at 10:00 PM ^
David Wilson is the real deal this year. I like his ability to stay up and spin off tackles.
November 17th, 2011 at 10:09 PM ^
David Wilson has been the real deal. He's a damn good running back.
UNC got screwed on that catch inside the 5 before half and then that fumble by David Wilson. Also blew the call where the ball wasn't catchable. Sucks that's a 14 point swing by whatevaz I guess.
Also, Craig James can't recognize a zone-read for shit.

I just moved to Blacksburg and am still adjusting to the VT culture. They sure do come out for their Thursday night games every year. I guess it makes it easier to find a Michigan bar on Saturday (if it exists).
November 17th, 2011 at 10:52 PM ^
No Michigan bars in Blacksburg, at least that I know of (VT student here). Obviously a pretty small town but you can try to watch the games at Sharky's or some place. Other than VT football, they pretty much don't watch football at all so you might be able to watch it at the bar but I don't know if they'll be any Michigan fans there.
Also, never try to talk football with Tech students. They know absolutely nothing and think Logan Thomas is one of the best QBs in the nation. It pisses me and my girlfriend off so much to constantly here them talk about how Tech is so great at football yet they get destroyed when they play better (IE non-ACC) teams like Stanford, Boise State, Alabama, LSU, or even Kansas (2007).
November 17th, 2011 at 10:58 PM ^
And VT fans don't know any thing about football. They think VT is a national championship team every year. It's a joke.
November 17th, 2011 at 11:31 PM ^
Sort of true, I'm one of the rational VT alumni / fanbase who doesn't believe VT is championship worthy year after year. Too many deficiencies and collapses happen every year.
