Virginia Tech will be coming to ETSU this year to play a game Nov 8th. It's just you aren't allowed to attend or really supposed to know about it. ESPN has uncovered a list of these secret games that are going on this year.

Interesting. It's on a Saturday. Presumably at FH?

The NCAA allows 2 exhibition games, 2 closed scrimmages, or a combination of the two. ETSU elected to play 1 of each, a game with Milligan and a scrimmage with VaTech. The decision was made that another game with a school similar to Milligan would probably does not provide a gauge of where the team is at.

Maybe a recent rule change???-I think this is a good move and should have been done for a number of years.

Good decision. Would love to be a fly on the wall at that scrimmage.

We did this a few years ago at Furman. Was the time Lukas Poderis tore his achilles.

I know we have had closed scrimmages with MTSU before.
