College Football

At least I get to watch on TV the Canes play the next two weeks - they play back-to-back Thursday night games. Does anyone know if a team has played consecutive Thursdays night games before?

Yup, VT has played consecutive Thursdays for the last year or two. The VT @ Miami game will be our second Thursday in a row this year. I love it, apparently our team does too, our Thursday night record is impeccable. Although the Canes always scare me a little, even on a bad year.

I found this on ESPN: Yeah, it should be close, considering Miami and Virginia Tech are the ACC's winningest teams in Thursday night football. Miami is 12-1, and Virginia Tech is 15-3, but they've never met on Thursday night.

Should be a close game. Go Canes!!

Two of those losses were to BC, so they don't count . For some reason BC is like kyrptonite to VT, we always have a tough time with them.

Crap, I didn't realize Miami owned Thursday nights also. I hate close games, makes me nervous, I'd be much happier to see Tech run all over 'em like we did MD

And this more or less decides the division champ too, our last two games are Duke and UVA so if we beat Miami, done deal I hope.

If VA Tech wins out they win the Coastal Division. If Miami beats Tech and UNC wins out, the Tar Heels win the Coastal. For Miami to win the Coastal, they need to win out and have UNC lose a game.

My brother just got tickets to see Penn state this weekend he's really hyped.

Even though I dislike PSU, I usually get there once a year. My friend is a huge PSU fan and has season tickets.

I got to geaux to a Tigers game down in Baton Rouge 2 years ago. I had a blast. Great fans down at LSU...Almost as good as at the other Death Valley.

In the Atlantic Division, both Maryland and BC control their own destiny. If either one wins out, they win the Atlantic (Maryland and BC play each other in the last game of the season).

That game's not looking good either at this point. But, if history is any indication, the Tigers should be ok in that one.

Is it 'cause the best defense recruits from VA go to Bud Foster?

Can't wait for tomorrow. Good thing I've got Friday off, I'm gonna need to either celebrate or ease the pain.

The UNC MD game will be a good one to watch too. Especially since MD only wins against ranked teams, and they're probably pretty upset about finishing last Thursday's game with -12 rushing yards.
