Reminiscent of the duke cal game but opposite. This must be how the dukie felt after their horrendous start. Hoping results are the same

The Bears look like they woke up after ceding 10 points to the Hokies. Aside from a couple lapses (e.g., drops, missed tackles, penalties), they've played pretty well. If they can keep this up, they should walk out with a W.

One of the keys to this game is Cal's play in the 4th quarter. We've been horrible at scoring and stopping our opponents from scoring in the 4th.

We look improved to last week, our WRs still drop way too many balls.


Yes, last week it took 3 turnovers to beat a worse team at home. This week we are beating a slightly better team on the road after spotting them 10 quick points.

Imagine how good we would be with a couple of WRs other than De Jesus (who is good, but at 5'5" his size limits his effectiveness in the Red Zone)?

JKS--with all those drops--still 13/19 in the first half

It's because we like to turtle in the 4th quarter, and take our foot off the gas.

I am quite happy with the defensive adjustments made after the first two drives by VT

Alternatively a key will be whether we finally keep our foot on the pedal, maintain our 2nd quarter energy after the half and build a bigger lead in the 3rd quarter, putting them away and making our 4th quarter issues moot.

Maybe I'm unfair to our coaches. VaTech's offensive playcalling makes ours look dynamic

The bags of cash didn't show up because of the NBA bust.

They had 2 big drops including the missed TD - it's contagious.

They already fired their head coach. They have to wait until the end of the season to replace the rest.

Ya, but that blindside block was pretty integral to the outcome.

They look like a little worse version of us. Unimaginative play calling. Dropped passes. Bad penalties, lapsing energy
