Virginia Tech will now have gone 8 years since defeating a non-conference Power 5 opponent. The last win came against West Virginia in 2017. The last #Hokies win at home was vs. Nebraska in 2009.

- This feels like ages ago. From “Dark Horse Playoff Team” to 6-7. What a disappointing season.
- Virginia Tech has not hosted @CollegeGameDay since 2017 vs. Clemson. At 5-3, and with No. 11 Clemson 6-1, it's possible GameDay comes to Blacksburg next Saturday. Here's what must happen though for the #Hokies to host College GameDay against the Tigers🧵⬇️
GIF - No Enter Sandman? No problem for @CassellGuardVT. Blacksburg is rockin like Dokken right now in support of the #Hokies against the Jackrabbits.
00:00 - I get it’s a Thursday and there’s class for some tomorrow. But c’mon. You’re dominating 28-0, and this is what the student section looks like 5 minutes into the 3rd quarter? Disappointing showing for Virginia Tech’s students.
- @SickosCommittee we have Virginia Tech fans slip-and-sliding in the mud here in Annapolis. True sickos behavior, but it also looks like a ton of fun!
00:00 - Virginia Tech is and always will be a football school. But men’s basketball was something that grew organically over the last decade. Buzz and CMY proved you can hoop in Blacksburg. The 2019 S16 and 2022 ACCT W gave the Hokies juice. To see what it’s become now is depressing.
- This is what Cassell Guard and the Virginia Tech student section looks like 5 minutes before tip-off between the #Hokies and Rutgers. If you’re gonna talk the talk …
- Here’s the shot from right behind the Hail Mary tonight between Virginia Tech and Miami. You be the judge #Hokies … did Da’Quon Felton catch this ball?
- Back in my sophomore year, I did a photo/audio story for my multimedia reporting class on SubStation II. I wanted to highlight the amazing owner Hamid LaPuasa, the incredible subs, and the treasure trove of Hokies history in it. Can't believe it's closing. Here is that story:
00:00 - I think we’re forgetting someone here…

This year’s RB draft class is absolutely LOADED. Some NFL scouts reportedly believe there could be “easily over 10” selected between rounds one and two. • Ashton Jeanty (Boise State) • Omarion Hampton (UNC) • Kaleb Johnson (Iowa) • Dylan Sampson (Tennessee) • Jordan James - The Virginia Tech disrespect is real, and I don’t know how you put next year’s team outside of the Top 10. Just more bulletin board material and fuel to the fire for next season…Way-Too-Early 2023-24 women's basketball Top 25: 1. UConn 2. Utah 3. LSU 4. Iowa 5. Indiana 6. UCLA 7. South Carolina 8. Ohio State 9. Stanford 10. Notre Dame Full rankings: ⬇️ es.pn/3zvj4gC
- I said this before, but the creative opportunities are near limitless if Virginia Tech did this: - Lane is the TERRORDOME - Exit light, enter NIGHT - BLACKsburg Imagine: Night game. Let's go, #Hokies! wraps. The lights dim/cut. The opening riff of Enter Sandman plays... chills!
- Virginia Tech women’s basketball opens its season tonight against UNC-Wilmington, which features Kate Hollifield, the younger sister of former #Hokies linebacker Dax Hollifield. Kate transferred to UNC-Wilmington after two years at Belmont. Cool connection there!
