The Hokies have played a pretty weak schedule this season. Tennessee had their way with them early in the season and likely their worst loss was similar to ours versus Missouri, when they lost to Syracuse. VT has given up these numbers on the ground this season...

Tennessee: 239 yards
Syracuse: 156 yards
Pitt: 180 yards
Duke: 227 yards
Georgia Tech: 309 yards
Notre Dame: 200 yards
Clemson: 182 yards

I like our chances to be able to run the ball.
I like our chances of getting them to turn the ball over, as they rank 109th in the nation.
I like our chances of being able to disrupt their offense in the backfield, as their line doesn't seem to be very good.
I like our chances of our line getting a push up front against their Dline.

I have 0 faith of our D line disrupting a thing unless it is agim. Even those are few and far between.

I think with so much time to prepare, the team will be ready to play and hopefully we see the team that whipped Florida's arse, not the one who played the second half against Missouri.

8-5 sounds a lot better than 7-6
