skydiver30960 0 #1 January 2, 2006 I graduated from Virginia Tech in 97, and to this day it seems that old habits are hard to break. The Hokies have always been able to benefit AND/OR suffer from the emotions of tough wins/losses. First quarter in the Gator Bowl, down 14-3, a SEVERAL of bad penalties, and now an ejected player. Here we go again. I would LOVE to see the Hokies win. But, my gut tells me the Hokies lost this game when they lost to USC. Louisville is pumped to be in the Gator Bowl, the Hokies feel like they're playing a consolation game, and both teams are playing the part.

sdctlc 0 #3 January 3, 2006 I was at Tech the first year Beamer came in '87 after Dooley screwed the school. I saw plenty of losses and the "Hokies" were the "Chokies". After Beamers 6 years they were dooing great and winning but still seemed to be the chokies now and then when it counted, i.e. late in teh season while highly ranked or in the national title game ect.... For this game all I can think is: "Old Hokie" Fight Song Hokie, Hokie, Hokie, Hi! Tech, Tech, VPI Sol-a-rex, Sol-a-rah Poly Tech Vir-gin-ia Ray rah VPI Team! Team! Team! winning is nice Scott C."He who Hesitates Shall Inherit the Earth!" Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
