Wildstar: Damn good call!

I was @ the game and ASU was the worst team I've seen play in the 4 yrs I've been attending.

ST/Def did a great job. Lots of penetration to break up the running game. It was hard to gauge the offense, they were on the field for such short periods of time. The running game looks great.

The Hokies really need to get a deeper pass game in effect. Opposing defences can stuff 8 in the box to counter the KJ/Suggs 1-2 punch. A consistent passing attack will prevent this. Tech had a hard time with the long ball last year and now with Mr. Davis gone it gets tougher. As you say, someone needs to step up and be the MAN(or MEN for that matter). I would have liked to see the coaches call some long ball plays to stretch the field. Perhaps they are holding their cards close to the vest as the game did not merit such plays.

I hope Randall gets the nod, he's a great scrambler and can run on the broken play. He's dangerous but can be a danger to team as that's when he fumbles the most. He had several bad passes but showed improvement. Noel had several blocked passes which I found disturbing. Given the defensive fronts he'll face the rest of the season will be bigger and faster.
I hope the coaching staff ditches the option play when Noel is in. It didn't work last year and it did not look good this game either.

LSU,Marshall and A&M are going to be tough but I'd rather see the Hokies play this echelon than the UCONNs, JMUs and Western Mich. of the world.

The South end zone looks great. I strolled around there during halftime.
