Post-WV and Current 16-17 Season Comparison.


Two observations:

1. After reading TTL / Black Diamond Trophy comments, I realized that I didn't remember seeing a lot of commentary after the game of violence off the field (and not related to the parking fiasco- sorry to bring THAT up again!).

VT has some great B10 games coming up, but way too many ODU/UR/ECU games at the same time (does it really make sense to play ODU every year until 2054?). Does it make sense to revisit a WV rivalry- even if it is only every 4-5 years? Are batteries, feces and flaming couches still a thing VT needs to worry about for the foreseeable future? How has WV treated Big 12 visiting fan bases lately?

2. Looking at the 3x 16 reg season losses, in a worst case scenario where VT loses to both UM and GT, it is likely that VT won't get to the ACCCG. If that were to happen, VT would still have had a better 17 season comparably, given that their 3 reg season losses weren't brain farts (hopefully!) The losses were against already successful teams. In a definite "rebuilding" year for VT.

While 9-3 obviously isn't as good as 11-1, I'd still be really happy with 9-3 reg season, with the possibility of a bowl win as well. That's a pretty significant achievement for a dynasty in its second year. Let's hope VT can win the games it definitely SHOULD win, going forward. We can only go up from here.

Go VT! Beat the Cheat!
