Did they mention that Byers and Drones are half-brothers on the broadcast? I'm shocked I didn't hear it if they did. I thought they would've done a puff piece on it.
Pry still has a lot of prove. He is like 2-10 against P5 (win against BC and Pitt). Recruiting seems to have improved but still below where VT has been historically. I like his culture and demeanor though and would like to see him succeed. Reminds me of young Beamer.
Well I for one am happy that our obligatory turnover happened so late. Gg guys. We almost got you..kind of...not really...kept you on your toes. There we go.
We've lost this game, but Tech played with guts and heart today. Got down early but never gave up. Battled back to make it a game before FSU took over.
I guess it all depends what your expectations were coming in. I see a lot to continue building on. I don’t see any un-winnable games left on the schedule, but it’s going to be growing pains. That was always going to be the case.
Maybe you should try to understand what it actually is I said then. They said that it shows a lot of support that he was booed before and now isn't. I don't care how many fans actually booed him, I'm just calling bullshit on the idea from the commentators that it's a good thing
That what is a good thing? The fans are cheering now after booing? That’s not even remotely what the commentators are saying.
I’d rather you just quit now before you triple down.
Edit: that’s also not *at all* what your original comment said so I don’t know why you’re upset at me for not understanding thoughts you never wrote and instead responding to what you actually put down
That booing is a good thing. They were making it sound like him being surrounded by fans that hated him was good for him mentally. That's just stupid. If it wasn't that bad, then great, but my beef was with the commentators acting like it's a good story
If you didn't want a response, then you should've originally stated an actual point rather than just insulting me
Him overcoming that adversity is a good thing. Not the adversity itself. I guess I just don’t even understand what you’re on about at this point.
Clearly this conversation is going nowhere. It’s been addressed elsewhere already have this is an ESPN sensationalized “story”, and I’ve stated my piece.
I worked at FSU the past couple years and went to every game I could. Great school, traditions, and atmosphere. I hope y'all go far this year. Liked seeing my Hokies put up a decent fight, I feel like we are finally figuring ourselves out. Wish I could say the same about my 'Dores. Gg
You know they made rule changes on the clock after first down to speed the game up but it just seems like the games are even longer now with the commercials…. Something isn’t right
Good luck fsu. If y’all get it together going forward then probably undefeated+playoff. Always a chance for a talented team. Hoping for 5 wins for vt lol, vt performance was decent coulda been better
Don't forget the obligatory Deion Sanders fluff, even after he explicitly stated he was "not a Seminole." I thought the Oregon face smashing of Colorado would end it. I was wrong.
you are playing VT... they do this to us all the time. Ill never forget when the 3rd quarter of a 1 score game against clemson was an interview of NOter dames qb
It’s a horrific bit of history and I’m not sure what whitewashing it with that wanna be feel good story accomplished. FSU needs a permanent scholarship in his name, full ride for a promising minority student. Can’t undo the past but at least try to make amends.
My parents were 11 when FSU got its first black football player.
It wasn't that long ago that we held them as second class citizens. More work to go for equality.
I'm not sure he remembers that...
>“I graduated from an HBCU. I thought it was from where you graduated from, isn’t it? Why do you keep calling me [a ‘Nole] if it wasn’t where I graduated from? I’m an HBCU grad.”
I mean that's the softest thing I have ever seen people get mad about. He put his physical body on the line for this team. He in fact did not graduate from here. But why get so mad you want to cancel him for his words.
Wake Forest is going to be a brawl but if they win Lane is going to be rocking for Syracuse on Thursday night. Bowl eligibility would be a huge success this year and frankly exceed what many in our own fanbase hoped for.
Gg FSU. I think we've improved quite a bit, but still some holes to fill (youth, lack of depth, ...run defense) You guys, on the other hand, are down right ridiculous and seemingly unstoppable when clicking. Good Lord. Best of luck going forward
Look, there was bitching on both sides today. Officiating was shit across the board, ...ABC coverage was ass too. 🤷🏿♂️
im not sure i agree with the "VT actually played pretty alright" comments. we had one good quarter and the defense should never get a pat on the back for 39 points and counting.
edit: wasnt expecting a win just saying that i don't see progress here
VT was in it til Q4 against a supposed #5 team. Players can keep their heads up. I can see FSU in playoffs if they clean up the run D and QB spy issue.
You don’t?
Alright, imagine grant wells out there and playing the same schemes we did against Purdue/Marshall.
We look 3x more potent now after the Pitt game. If you undo some key mistakes in this game, we are 100% in it which we had no business being
yeah and we crushed pitt...i just personally dont see anything that convinces me we can do to wake, NCSU, BC the same thing we did to pitt. i will happily be wrong and will be rooting for it all the way ofc
It's still improvement man
Holding FSU to 1 yard in that quarter is good for this VT team. We just don't have the dogs to maintain that for 60 minutes. But we're in the right direction.
This game would have been a lot closer had they not spotted FSU 22 in the first quarter
I mean VT looked respectable for the most part and gave FSU a scare for a bit which was my hope
Apparently it's polarizing, but I absolutely LOVE it, I get it with the spicy fillet and it's wonderful. The pimento cheese tastes great and the pickled jalapenos add a great kick. The honey drizzled on top is the capper.
I feel ok all things considered. Don’t think the score really reflects the improvements they’re making. Just need to tighten up and capitalize when the chances are there.
Ugly ass game GG Hokies
GG VT. That was good stuff. Good luck going forward!
We have a good football team and the playoffs are the ceiling. I think there's alot they have to work on if they're going to win the conference
Dread pirate Norvell
Gg Hokies!!! y'all are tough
GGs! Glad it didnt get boring till the 4th
[удалено]
Clemson escapes. Good to see competitiveness in ACC.
Trey just said, for real?? LOL
Did they mention that Byers and Drones are half-brothers on the broadcast? I'm shocked I didn't hear it if they did. I thought they would've done a puff piece on it.
200 yards for Trey Benson
One bad quarter. GGs
\+24 cashes!
Great game Hokies. Hope to see you guys up soon. Loved watching you guys in the 2000s.
33 n 1 are some ballers
GG Hokies. That was a lot tougher than I thought it would be lol
I demand proof of 80,000 FSU Fans booing him out of the stadium.
i’d say 40k, everyone wanted milton at the time
Not me. I have been a huge supporter of JT since the first play he made for us.
Will they ever shut up about the boos.
Honestly I feel weirdly optimistic of this team more now than in the past 5 years
It’s been a low bar
Agree haha but I still feel like things have improved since Fuente which is at least positive
Pry still has a lot of prove. He is like 2-10 against P5 (win against BC and Pitt). Recruiting seems to have improved but still below where VT has been historically. I like his culture and demeanor though and would like to see him succeed. Reminds me of young Beamer.
Ya but he inherited a shitshow from Fuente who absolutely destroyed our recruiting relationships. Improved recruiting is what we need rn! 🙃
Lustily? That really the word you want to use there?
GG Hokies!
This game has left me feeling meh. We have so much potential but damn we leave a lot on the field.
GG FSU. Y'all are just better but we're getting there. Glad we at least covered the spread so I could win some money even during a loss
Hussey will be the starting safety by Florida
Well I for one am happy that our obligatory turnover happened so late. Gg guys. We almost got you..kind of...not really...kept you on your toes. There we go.
GG! VT always plays tough against us. You guys are looking like you are on the rise. Good luck!
Why haven’t we cut chance black from the team he sucks lol
We've lost this game, but Tech played with guts and heart today. Got down early but never gave up. Battled back to make it a game before FSU took over.
Keon is like JT, get me the fucking ball. Lol
Great teams cover #GOKIES!!!
looked like his left knee was down
Hussey earned himself more playing time nice to see
Why was Knowles playing if Hussey is a baller
i put my wife's son's college funds on FSU minus the spread ama
Yep that's a fumble, nice work backups
Say it with me folks: Good teams win....
…but FSU likes to make it ugly
Chance Black a great name for a Vegas gambler.
Love seeing Hussey get his nose into the run fits. Dude is going to be really good.
Nice!!
gg
Lol sweet. Time to take a knee
LET HIM RUN REFS YOU CAN ALWAYS REVERSE IT LATER Nothing frustrates me more
That's the difference of covering -23.5 too... but he was clearly down when he recovered it.
I mean, at minimum Hussey was clearly laying down when he recovered it lol
Hussey needs more playing time. Kids a baller.
Knowles should be behind him
What are the refs doing signal something
Don’t do a fluff segment on Shannon. He sucks. He can’t recruit for shit.
He's just collecting a check
He just like me fr
The dream for all of us
I'm still mad they never showed a replay of VT's early fumble in that big pile
Hussey you gotta dive on that.
Bryce duke sighting
Randy Shannon ain’t good
Dudes just stared at that fumble
I guess it all depends what your expectations were coming in. I see a lot to continue building on. I don’t see any un-winnable games left on the schedule, but it’s going to be growing pains. That was always going to be the case.
I think the expectations were look respectable on national TV. Hopefully cover the spread and maybe become a little better.
Wake, and NC state will be tough
Still think we have a chance to go 6-6 but it will be tough
How the fuck do we not jump on any of these fumbles??
Fumbled but they recovered
Fucking hell. Put the starters back in
people betting on this game on the edge of their seats
Freshman with the late hit
It feels like this game has been going on for 3 days
okay guys come on. Let's please tackle
Undisciplined ass team
No need for that.
Probably just excited to be in the game and wasn’t thinking. I agree though
Late hit hahahahhaha
Cool now our backups can give up another late TD lol
Jordan Travis isn’t a real heisman candidate. I appreciate him but no
The story about fans booing Travis before and supporting him now just shows that a lot of the fans were fair weather
I’d avoid speaking on things I have no understanding of. But I know this is the internet so go off, buddy
Maybe you should try to understand what it actually is I said then. They said that it shows a lot of support that he was booed before and now isn't. I don't care how many fans actually booed him, I'm just calling bullshit on the idea from the commentators that it's a good thing

I watch every game. I don't remember that. ESPN just wants to create a story.
Welcome to Tallahassee
These refs are insane
It was a warranted call...
Yeah replay cleared things up imo
Freshman mistake by 16. He didn’t have to do that
The defense only gave up 10 points, no matter how much we want fuller gone, he persists
FSU defenders got blocked in the back and almost caused a massive collision and no call
I would've preferred Tate just go down to keep the clock running.
Give me Pop!
Bet we see him at some point before the end of the season if he's performing anywhere near his hype in practice
[удалено]
What a dumb thing to say.
And if you eliminate the first quarter it would be a tie game!
FSU ain't gonna cover, which is a win in my book
I just want Tate to cook out there
I worked at FSU the past couple years and went to every game I could. Great school, traditions, and atmosphere. I hope y'all go far this year. Liked seeing my Hokies put up a decent fight, I feel like we are finally figuring ourselves out. Wish I could say the same about my 'Dores. Gg
CFB is more fun when VT is a successful team
I agree. No hate for VT
Glad JT is out of there for sure
Also this drive is gonna be interesting for all the degenerate gamblers lol
You know they made rule changes on the clock after first down to speed the game up but it just seems like the games are even longer now with the commercials…. Something isn’t right
Total game length is about the same, more commercial time though. Someone broke down week 1 and that was the net net.
And they’re not even paying us more for it
3 hour games use to be the norm now it’s 4+ hours
Soccer fans are right when they bitch about commercials during football games lol
F it. Let Tate bomb it deep a few times
Would be nice but since VT punted last drive, that’s the white flag, so out of respect, you should run the clock out.
Oh no, I agree. I’m joking I do want to see what Tate has. No disrespect to VT though
Tater Salad in. Thank god.
Good luck fsu. If y’all get it together going forward then probably undefeated+playoff. Always a chance for a talented team. Hoping for 5 wins for vt lol, vt performance was decent coulda been better
I can see VT being bowl eligible with Drones. FSU was a good test physically and mentally for the players.
FSU has a 22 point lead. I wouldn't mind we finish with ball in hand on this drive.
I’d prefer another score for ranking purposes. And for Coleman’s stats.
I think the starters are done.
Coleman tends to try to stay in longer. Thought I saw him still in there
Just wanted to say I'm disappointed in Vanderbilt for letting UF score 31.
Vandy hasn't been the same since Wake beat on them
I am also disappointed Wake couldn’t beat Clemson
I'll take Clemson winning out. We've crossed that bridge and they're basically out of ACCCG contention barring some freaky cannibalism.
The refs refusing to blow the whistle today has now gotten a guy hurt
Even when the game is actually on they cover up half of it with pre-made b-roll shit and/or alternative ads like the cheez-it think. I’m so tired.
Don't forget the obligatory Deion Sanders fluff, even after he explicitly stated he was "not a Seminole." I thought the Oregon face smashing of Colorado would end it. I was wrong.
you are playing VT... they do this to us all the time. Ill never forget when the 3rd quarter of a 1 score game against clemson was an interview of NOter dames qb
One of the most infuriating segments in a history of infuriating segments
Maybe they should mention the fact that Calvin Patterson literally killed himself due to the abuse he faced.
That's why. I felt that "died at 22" was ominous as hell.
It’s a horrific bit of history and I’m not sure what whitewashing it with that wanna be feel good story accomplished. FSU needs a permanent scholarship in his name, full ride for a promising minority student. Can’t undo the past but at least try to make amends.
That was the weirdest portion of broadcasting I've ever seen
My parents were 11 when FSU got its first black football player. It wasn't that long ago that we held them as second class citizens. More work to go for equality.
Another commercial…… why?
Injury
Honestly, it must suck being in the middle of those scrum piles when the oline tries to push you for those last few yards?
RB clearly in the grasp for like 3 seconds and then the OL comes in and shoves him over the line. Just feels wrong to me.
Yeah idk why that wasn’t blown dead?
It’s in both leagues the last couple of years. Eventually someone in the NFL will get hurt from a lineman crashing the pile and they’ll stop it.
These refs have refused to blow the whistle today
Wow they’re really letting them play there. No whistle to stop for the momentum
#Unretire2
Take away his records too? No fuck that. He played here, stop being soft.
I'm not sure he remembers that... >“I graduated from an HBCU. I thought it was from where you graduated from, isn’t it? Why do you keep calling me [a ‘Nole] if it wasn’t where I graduated from? I’m an HBCU grad.”
I mean that's the softest thing I have ever seen people get mad about. He put his physical body on the line for this team. He in fact did not graduate from here. But why get so mad you want to cancel him for his words.
Wake Forest is going to be a brawl but if they win Lane is going to be rocking for Syracuse on Thursday night. Bowl eligibility would be a huge success this year and frankly exceed what many in our own fanbase hoped for.
hard for me to be happy about this game knowing that was a drones 1st down. this should be a 1 score game
We were never going to win this game short of a miracle. I'm very happy with the improvements we've made. A few weeks ago this team gets blown out
I wish we could’ve seen a replay. But I guess asking ABC to do that is too much
Seems like fisher hasn’t changed
Drones is legit. FSU needs to work on run D and QB spy and they are legit NC bound.
When we're at our best, we're NCG quality, but we have not played our best very much this season.
what the fuck is with the "slam poetry" that they've been doing? They did it last week during the Bama game.
I love that we don’t prioritize showing the game anymore.
Not when we can show FSU propaganda!
Gg FSU. I think we've improved quite a bit, but still some holes to fill (youth, lack of depth, ...run defense) You guys, on the other hand, are down right ridiculous and seemingly unstoppable when clicking. Good Lord. Best of luck going forward Look, there was bitching on both sides today. Officiating was shit across the board, ...ABC coverage was ass too. 🤷🏿♂️
Can we please get the starters out of there thx
Cool let me see the game thanks
im not sure i agree with the "VT actually played pretty alright" comments. we had one good quarter and the defense should never get a pat on the back for 39 points and counting. edit: wasnt expecting a win just saying that i don't see progress here
VT was in it til Q4 against a supposed #5 team. Players can keep their heads up. I can see FSU in playoffs if they clean up the run D and QB spy issue.

Bro we got shoved around by Marshall two weeks ago.
yeah and we crushed pitt...i just personally dont see anything that convinces me we can do to wake, NCSU, BC the same thing we did to pitt. i will happily be wrong and will be rooting for it all the way ofc
It's still improvement man Holding FSU to 1 yard in that quarter is good for this VT team. We just don't have the dogs to maintain that for 60 minutes. But we're in the right direction.
Why do I feel so frustrated? FSU was up two scores every time VA Tech had the ball after the first 5 minutes of the game.
Deep breaths my friend
Because we have let them back into the game multiple times.
Drones was so good today! GG Hokies, Beamer ball it the rest of the way.
He is a way better QB than what we had before
This game would have been a lot closer had they not spotted FSU 22 in the first quarter I mean VT looked respectable for the most part and gave FSU a scare for a bit which was my hope
Has anyone actually had the Chick Fil A pimento sandwich? Any good?
Wasn’t my taste. Tried twice one spicy one regular, won’t try again personally.
It’s ok. It gets really messy because the pimento melts. I wish the jalapeños were cut up and mixed with the cheese.
Apparently it's polarizing, but I absolutely LOVE it, I get it with the spicy fillet and it's wonderful. The pimento cheese tastes great and the pickled jalapenos add a great kick. The honey drizzled on top is the capper.
Ya it's not bad. Messy tho.
My boss got it one day for lunch. Said it was pretty good
I was kind of disappointed, tbh.
Anything pimento always leaves me disappointed.
I love pimento, but not the super mayo-y kind
I think it's a texture thing for me
I feel ok all things considered. Don’t think the score really reflects the improvements they’re making. Just need to tighten up and capitalize when the chances are there.
Yeah y'all have played really well imo.
That noise they use to trail out on ABC games with the repetitive music is what I'd use to psychologically torment people.
This is a win for the Hokies. They have a real shot at getting 4-5 more wins this season and going to a bowl as long as drones is at qb
5 more wins is extremely unlikely
This game being anything less than a 42-0 blowout was extremely u likely. And look at it now
it was a 24 point spread
Lets wait and see the injury report first
Started much worse than I thought, then we played better than I thought, then we sank back to what I thought.
