I think this summarizes the ignorance/arrogance of Va Tech fans that others have mentioned on here. The teams that he was "psh ok" about beat both division champions in the ACC, and that Georgia team beat their conference champion at Ga Tech, a feat Va Tech could not accomplish.... and we blew both South Carolina and Georgia out.

It is also ironic that any ACC team would try to pull the "who have the beaten" argument on any team, let alone the second place team in the SEC east. Who did Va Tech beat? Miami?? NC State?? Virginia?? Boston College?? Duke?? Maryland?? East Carolina?? Marshall?? Psh ok. Va Tech's most impressive victory was against a mediocre Nebraska team that still dominated Va Tech in every aspect of the game except for the score (similar to us at Alabama). It must be nice to play a schedule soft enough that it has seven or eight guaranteed wins built in. Must be boring though. The fact they can even fill up that small stadium of theirs is impressive given the fact they don't play anybody.

I think that many of them believe all conferences are the same, and do not understand that a 7 win SEC team is likely a 9-10 win ACC team... and probably conference champions.


As a Hokie I must present some facts about the 2009 season to help dispel the perception that Va Tech plays a soft schedule.

Vols 2009 record: 7-5
Va Tech 2009 record: 9-3

Vols opponents record in 2009: 80-67
Va Tech opponents record in 2009: 88-60

Record of the teams that the Vols lost to: 46-16
Record of the teams that Tech lost to: 32-6

SEC is sending 10 teams to bowls
ACC is sending 7 (not bad for an inferior conference)

ACC Team Statistics:
Georgia Tech is ranked second nationallly in rushing offense and fourth in total offense (no SEC team is higher).
Va Tech is ranked 16th in rushing (Ryan Williams a red-shirt freshman is tied for fifth nationally in rusing TDs)
Duke is ninth nationally in passing and receiving (no SEC team is higher).
Clemson is second nationally in tackles.

Didn't see Tennessee ranked in any of the categories except kickoff returns.

Vols opening day opponent went winless (Western Kentucky).
Va Tech played Alabama on opening day (and not at home).

Vols played 4 away games.
Va Tech played 6 away games including opening day against Alabama.

Va Techs other two losses were to Georgia Tech (ACC champion and Orange Bowl bound) and North Carolina (finished 8-4).
The Vols lost to a UCLA team that finished 6-6.

One more thing, Tech beat Nebraska and from what I saw Saturday they were a better team than Texas and deserved to win that game (not to mention they have the most dominant defensive player in the country).

So if Tech has a soft schedule I guess that means the Vols have an even softer schedule.

BTW, the Vols opening day opponent next year is Tennessee-Martin (according to GOVOLSXTRA.com). The toughest team they play on a yearly basis is Memphis. Talk about soft scheduling.

I have also read comments on this thread questioning the intelligence level of people living in SW VA. Here is a quote from a literacy study about Tennessee:

"More than half of adult Tennesseans can barely read a street map, find information in an article, or calculate postage for their mail".

Look forward to a great game in Atlanta. Go Hokies!

Thank You, Leo Tolstoy.... Now.... What are you going to say about all these stats when Tennessee pulls your pants down and spanks you mercilessly on New years Eve in front of a national audience? You DO know we're going to beat you till you shine, right?

Comparing the records of the two is silly, considering we play two different leagues of football (both literally and figuratively). Va Tech has a better record than the Tennessee Titans too, I guess that means they're better in your mind?

And you're right, Nebraska was the better team than Texas that night. But they were also the better team at Va Tech. You should know that if you watched the game. Conversely, Tennessee was the better team the day we played Alabama. Va Tech was the lesser team when they played Alabama.

And are you really going to try to knock our OOC schedule? One, we play in the SEC so we would not need good OOC schedules, yet we annually still have some of the best OOC match ups. Next year we have what will be a top 10 Oregon team coming into Neyland.

For the Va Tech fans that keep trying to defend your schedule, here it is...

S5 Alabama 34, VT 24
S12 VT 52, Marshall 10
S19 VT 16, Nebraska 15
S26 VT 31, Miami 7
O3 VT 34, Duke 26
O10 VT 48, BC 14
O17 GT 28, VT 23
O29(Th) UNC 20, VT 17
N5(Th) VT 16, ECU 3
N14 VT 36, MD 9
N21 VT 38, NC State 10
N28 VT 42, UVa 13

Tennessee has 9 or 10 wins with that schedule too.
We will be the second best team you've played all year, easily.

Va Tech played 6 away games including opening day against Alabama.

Va Techs other two losses were to Georgia Tech who got beat by a wonderful UGA team (ACC champion and Orange Bowl bound) and North Carolina (finished 8-4).
The Vols lost to a UCLA team that finished 6-6.

One more thing, Tech beat Nebraska and from what I saw Saturday they were a better team than Texas and deserved to win that game (not to mention they have the most dominant defensive player in the country). right and they one that game how? on a last ditch hail mary - they got dominated by neb. and won on a fluke play at the end of regulation

So if Tech has a soft schedule I guess that means the Vols have an even softer schedule.

BTW, the Vols opening day opponent next year is Tennessee-Martin (according to GOVOLSXTRA.com). The toughest team they play on a yearly basis is Memphis. Talk about soft scheduling. Right and playing Oregon, Florida, Bama and LSU next season is "easy"

I think everyone on here that said Va Tech fans were delusional has been proven correct.

Never have I seen a team this arrogant, with so little to be arrogant about.

I hope we do what LSU did to them in 2007 (beat them by 40 points). To give you another idea of how bad the ACC is, that Va Tech team that lost by 40 points at LSU, still won the conference. The next year they lost to East Carolina, and still won the conference.

When was the last time the SEC champion had a loss to a non BCS opponent? Certainly not once during the BCS era.

And I have to live right in the middle of the clowns when I'm not in Knoxville for school.

Arrogant, arrogant fools who think the ACC is the best conference around (no lie) and that Tech is the next national champ.

Year in, year out. "This is our year" they say, only to lose 4 games and stinkers to teams like UNC, ECU, etc. Great job, guys.

Well while we're looking at numbers...

Va Tech:
First season 1892
All-time record 658–425–46 (.603)
Postseason bowl record 8–14
Claimed national titles (for some reason nothing came up here)
Conference titles 7
Consensus All-Americans 8

Tennessee:
First season 1891
All-time record 773–327–53 (.693)
Postseason bowl record 25–22–0
Claimed national titles 6
1938, 1940, 1950, 1951
1967, 1998
Conference titles 16
Consensus All-Americans 37

Granted we did have a one year head start (our first season 1891, yours 1892) so that will skew the numbers a tad.

And don't bring up weak OOC opponents, I'm fairly certain we were the last school in Div1 to schedule a non Div1 opponent, can someone find this out please? I would, but I can barely read a street map, find information in an article, or calculate postage for my mail. :glare:

Thanks for playing.

Q: What happens when you drive slowly through Blacksburg?
A: You get a degree.

Q: Why do Va. Tech grads hang their diplomas on their rear view mirrors?
A: They have to show some proof that they deserve to park in that handicap parking space.


Q: What's the difference between the Va. Tech Hokies and Frosted Flakes?
A: Frosted Flakes know what to do when they are in a bowl.

Why would you pull academics if VT is ranked higher, is harder to get into, and has higher salary at graduation, and when one of your fellow SEC schools is cancelling school for the national title game. Just stick to football:)

Actually, I looked up the statistics for the 2009 freshman class for both schools. I'm an UT Alum so naturally I have to defend academics. BOTH schools had an average high school GPA of 3.8 and an average ACT score of 26. Not really too different in the academic arena. And who knows...Va Tech may also feel propelled to cancel school for a National Title game if the opportunity ever presented itself. Hard to pass judgement on a program when you don't have much experience in the area.

I didn't believe that Va Tech would be any more academic than Tennessee, but I didn't feel like trying to look it up. Thanks for taking the time to do it.

Va Tech is at best the third best public school in its own state, and Tennessee is easily the best in its state, so the idea that Va Tech would be harder to get into was surprising.

One thing I have compared before is the size of each endowment, and Tennessee's endowment fund is double what Va Tech's is.

Are you honest to God coming onto an opponent's board, in a thread named "The make fun of ... thread" and talking about getting your degree and deciding on a major? That is pathetic, and part of the reason this thread already has 24 pages. There are about four VT fans that keep this thread up by trying to throw numbers around, make their team look good by saying they wins games in the ACC, blah blah blah. But I expect you to follow up by posting a conversation you had with your advisor soph. year.:crazy:
