My life and thoughts out on the web

Well it was over after the onside kick.  From there GT was out manned, out fought, and simply out played.  VT rolled with superior passing and a running attack that amassed nearly 500 total yards on the GT defense.  To add to their dismay, it was captained by the replacement QB Sean Glennon, the former starter who was benched for Tyrod Taylor - the true freshman who has been starting since the VT dismantling by LSU.

Sean, I must say, looked good.  With poise in the pocket, his passing percentage, down field passing and collectiveness  under pressure ( 6 sacks) he was able to strongarm the defense with a combination of short and long passes patched with small running plays to keep the defense on their toes all night long.  Confidence is a huge factor with this game and Sean had it tonight.  Coming off the crushing loss to BC at home, the team did not lose a beat bringing heavy pressure on GT’s offense causing 6 turnovers.

Our boys in Blacksburg move to 7-2 overall and 4-2 in the ACC controlling their own destiny to a potential rematch with BC in the ACC title game.
