Same here, but you can only play the games on your schedule. Do you think Houston would have a shot in hell against any of the other top ten teams?

Just VT!

The thing is, that goes against the whole Boise St. logic of why they will probably never get a shot at the national title; they can only play the games on their schedule. VT could have played better teams if they wanted to, but a loss would have only counted against them so it wasnt worth taking that chance. If youre in a major conference youre rewarded for playing it safe.

Every game I watch VT, they impress me more and more. Sure, LSU or Alabama would pound them, prison-style, but Logan Thomas is really turning into a pretty good QB (not to mention a BEAST). I remember early in the season he was SO robotic with his mechanics and now he has a pretty good touch on his deep balls and is making good decisions.

This. He has really come into his own since the shellacking Clemson put on them earlier. And you can see it, they look better every week. That game against Virginia they just put their heads down, and played steadily good football. It wasn't a fluke that they played their most complete game of the season, imo, last week.

I agree they seem to get better every game. I dont remember Logan Thomas entire story but i dont think they converted him to qb until the spring, right? Give him a couple years and he could be real real good.

Either way Houston is getting prison style pounded by So Miss so that leaves VT as the only remaining most overrated top 10 team. I dont think Clemson is going to violate VT tonight like So Miss is doing to UH, but i think Clemson is going to pull of a win. Should be a real good game though. Either way im routing for Tech.

Lets go VT!
