Battle in Blacksburg!!!!

UNREAL! Only thing I can think of. I am still in shock from this game. BC could not have had more things going wrong on the offensive side of the ball- heavy rain, dropped passes, bad o-line blocking,etc. I will not even start on the ACC refs blowing another call- they are horrible and for any team to win in this conference they are going to have to do it on their own because the refs will not make the same calls consistently. Penalties were another big black eye but the defense showed its mettle in this one. Too bad they could not come up with a pick for a score because for 56 minutes it looked like the only way they could win was a defensive TD. As I was watching the game I was talking to a buddy about the odds of BC recovering an onsides kick against VT. I do not hink there is a name for a number that high. Sure enough- Lady Luck popped up and we were given one more shot to win. The first TD to follow was marred by the little yellow laundry on the left of the screen just before Ryan threw the ball so you knew two things: 1- there was going o be an easy catch for a TD and 2, it would not count. Ryan held the troops together and with a great scramble shut up those fans at VTech quick. Those fans deserve a lot of credit for sitting through this one in that weather. I am not sure why the 2 backs were constantly getting out of the backfield without trying to protect Matty Ice a little more especially on the second to last series where they had the 4th and 33 going in the shadow of theor own goal. Hopefully another little rest period will get the troops ready for the game vs. Florida State. I am still waiting to see when the game will be on since ESPN excercised their right to change times and has not announced kickoff yet. I am willing to bet it will be the 4 or 8 PM game so hopefully if it is that late we will have some normal cold weather up here.
Great job to the boys for playing all 60 minutes and keeping their eyes on the prize!
