OK. The VT game thread contains all the valuable insights and experiences of that wonderful game.
This thread is to discuss any ramifications of the win on the Program.
For Example.
*The CFB-starved country had exclusive access to ODU v VT. A classic underdog matchup of G5 v P5. It was not unlike when ODU played Nova in OT where thee rest of the NCAA games had finished, so all the CBS affiliates showed the ODU game thru the other OTs. The country's eyes were focused on ODU!
* Nice showcase of ODU's new stadium. Though the elevator thing was embarrassing and humorous. What an ultimate "home job"!
* How about ODU's "Big Boy" Defense?! We forced a lot of 3-and-outs and were stiff throughout the game. The VT touchdown happening after that fluky deep ball.
* Coach Rahne's first P6 win EVER. Yes, the P6 schools will likely place RR on their radar, and he'll progress away from ODU like the VCU model, BUT... our Program will keep reloading with top assistants/coordinators. And let's be honest, having success in FBS CFB may be more lucrative than in A10 MBB.
* VT agreed to the 10 year contract with ODU bc they thought they'd waltz in and steal interest and recruits from the fertile 757. Oooops! This may be a blunder on the order of Putin thinking he could waltz into Kiev. Time will tell.
* "Welcome to the party pal!" using a line from Bruce Willis in Die Hard. What a way to impress our new host conference, SBC, and all the teams there that welcomed ODU to join. We showed out today and made the entire SBC look, even more, LEGIT! Yes, SBC, we fought together as a conference today... but watch y'alls back when we're on the grid iron with ya!
There's way too many to name, so add your thoughts!
This was a YUGE program win tonight. We're 2-2 with VT and each winning in their home town. Too bad we do not have an even home-away series with them over the next 10 years. They may pull a Seth G in six more years!
