vt / clemson aftermath

We won!!!! 24-7!  Unranked vt blew up #10 clemson!

Talk about a simple game plan.

• Stop their running backs and force their shaky qb (will proctor) to throw - check
• Run the ball with Brandon Ore - check
• Don't fuck up - half check

Before this game, clemson rb's averaged 185 yds per game and their offense led the nation in scoring at 42 ppg.  We held them to 80 yards rushing and 7 points.   Brandon Ore had 37 carries for 203 yards and almost broke a tech record for most carries in a game.  Our o-line and d-line played fantastic games!  In fact, the only thing that went wrong was sean glennon doing his michael vick impression and fumbling the ball in the 3rd quarter.

I bitch and moan about the playcalling of our offensive coordinator all the time, but last night was definitely one of his better nights.  He did a great job setting up all the big plays.  The sequence that stands out in my mind was 2 handoffs to ore to the right side, one quick out to clowney on the right, and finally the playaction pass to wheeler that went deep down the right sideline.  You could see clemson safety on that side position himself closer and closer to the line each play and then see him totally bite on the playfake.  The only reason the pass didn't go for a td was that wheeler is a big, slow tight end.  Basically the whole

night, everything that stinespring called worked perfectly.

Anyway, I posted a flickr set that has more pics!  I'm not sure how to get access to all the flickr pics in that set as adding photos to vox doesn't seem to grab all of them for me to choose from, nor does it give me multiple page options on the flickr tab.

(for those of you unfamiliar with college football, we're called the virginia tech hokies.  So after the 3rd quarter, the tuba's all line up and play the hokie pokie while people do the dance)
