The Twilight Zone or Just Hokie Football?
I'll be perfectly honest, this week's video was almost entirely an excuse to do the intro. I think I have a future as an impressionist of 1960s cultural figures, also possibly as a hard-boiled detective or something of that nature.
At any rate, the game against Liberty was brutal and an all around bummer. It's probably not the end of the world as many have claimed, but at the very least it's not a good look for a program in need of one.
You can tell a lot about a team by how it responds and it should be clear within the first five minutes Saturday if the remainder of the 2020 season will be worth watching for Hokie fans.
Saturday’s Swag 🔥

It's back to basics this week on the uniform front —including no unveiling video—and with coach Fuente running the scout team, one imagines practice had a renewed focus on fundamentals as well.
Will that be enough against a good Miami team? Are in we in for another classic rivalry game? Will I continue making pop culture references in videos that few in our target demographic understand?
Check out this week's show where I ramble on about Tech's chances against the No. 9 Hurricanes, the UNC-Wake Forest game, and quickly brush past last week's clunker against the Flames.
