It took the legislature getting involved to get them together in the same conference. More money will get them and there will be no love lost.

UVA bent over backwards to get VT in the ACC no way they will be ok to to let them just up and leave

3 potential BCS leagues in say what 12 years what does that really say about the people who run VT. If it ever happened inn the long run it would help the SEC tv and recruiting and basically be the end of VT football winning 9 or 10 games

Yes. They will be glad to be back apart. They didn't want them in the ACC to begin with.

Va Tech is almost twice as big as UVA, the Va Tech Alums are in the majority in the state.


ETA UVA a national school with a much higher out of state student percentage my guess would bee 33% out of state @ UVA 20 % @ VA TECH. The out of state students not as likely to become commonwealth residents

thats just not true. you are forgetting schools like JMU,ODU and VCU

and with VT admission standards going up after MV7 not just anyone can go there like pre MV7.

Yea I got to see that hate first hand from 96 till the last game between yall(while living in Richmond). I always enjoyed seeing yall beat them.

That is an understatement. UVA was forced by the state politicians to block all non VT expansion. UVA DID NOT want VT in the ACC.

One of the most overrated football teams in the country, maybe even ahead of ND now. I am no WVU fan, but i prolly hate them as much as you do
