It would have been better for VT if this game had been scheduled for a few years ago. It looks like the Vols are going to be pretty strong this year. But, at least if the Hokies do win, they will get a lot more credit for it.

Seems like VT/UT would be a natural for a season ending rivalry game a la Clemson/USCe or Georgia/Ga Tech. Any chance of that happening?

Yep. UT was down, but not any more.

Not likely. UT won't agree to play @VT, and the 2 teams couldn't sell 150,000 tickets EVERY year.
