I understand why Weaver didn't want to and I am okay with it


even though that wasn't my preference (even when I was at VT in the late 1990s). Because there are quite a few HS programs that are creating their own dynasty of sorts across this country (in part because of the increased exposure from ESPN), then VT should consider play someone in that state or at worse a neighboring state.

So if I were to create a wishlist of future OCC games, then I would probably include the following: UDub, Oregon (love to see the Hokie Bird beat the Duck in a drag race), Cal (payback for Insight Bowl), Stanford (payback for Orange Bowl), USC (payback for FedEx Field), UCLA (payback for Sun Bowl), Arizona State, Kansas @Arrowhead Stadium (payback for Orange Bowl), OU, Oklahoma St, and TCU (fun uptempo game in the DFW). If Baylor wasn't too toxic now, then I would be okay with a series against them too.

Even though there would be value playing Texas, I don't really have any desire to play them right now. There is no value in playing Wazzou, Oregon St, (maybe), (maybe) Colorado, Texas Tech, Kansas St (since they backed out of the series), or Iowa St.
