I was cheering for Tulane, but Virginia Tech look like they came ready to play today and they aren’t playing around. Congratulations Virginia Tech on their bowl game!!!

Virginia Tech under the radar has an opportunity to have a nice season next year.

21 of 22 starters coming back and warded off the portal taking key guys. A sign of solid culture these days.

This year, 3 of their losses were by 1 possession and they weren’t mathematically eliminated from a spot in the ACC Championship until November. They aren’t that far off.

Next years schedule is also somewhat friendly for them. They do not play the teams who finished in the Top 3 in the ACC (FSU, Lville, NCST) and are not one of the ACC schools who play Notre Dame either. They do draw Clemson at home though and Miami on the road.

Non-conference schedule At Vanderbilt, home to Marshall, At Old Dominion, home to Rutgers. I’m not saying they’re a lock to go 4-0 in the non-con but at the same time those are 4 winnable games for a team that returns 21 of 22 starters.

I’m curious where Vegas puts their preseaosn over/under win total. This year it was 5.5 with the over hitting. For those who partake in betting this could be a very attractive future play on the over depending on where Vegas puts the number.

I was there! Very rainy. But for my first ever football game to be a bowl game in row 2 on the 35 was definitely a great experience to root for one of our DMV teams for the win! Go Hokies!

Tulane had a great season, but they lost the conference championship game and now this bowl game, the year definitely didn’t end in their favor. Congratulations to VT 💯💯💯

Kyron Drones had a gorgeous game he had 91 passing Yards and 2 touchdowns and 176 Rushing yards and 1 touchdown.🏈

Hokies really showed how far they’ve come just this season alone. With the schedule next year, they should be taken as a threat.

I was there, so wet and deceptively cold. So worth it to see our team get the dub! Go Hokies!!!

USC Fan In The House:"It's The Defense That Led Virginia Tech To Winning This Game No Excuses With That Being Said Congratulations Much Love and Respect."

Kyron Drones started out his first drive of the game fumbling the ball which was returned for a TD by Tulane. After that play, I bet he had most of Virginia Tech football nation (fans, coaches, players, and media) cursing his name and existence. But he turns around and ends up winning game MVP honors. Talk about redemption!!!

Completing a pass to yourself has got to be a small group QBs.

Ooof, looked like every player on Tulane was at least 20 lbs lighter than the player in their position in VTech. Just couldn't outlast the physicality by the bigger team.

Good win by VT, Drones is a monster. Tulane? Anyone see them? The team that went 11-2 either beat a bunch of awful schools, or just plain didn't show up on a really ugly weather day. Fun to watch though, and the announcers behind the mics were far worse than anything Tulane coughed up today. All in all an entertaining experience.

[gmcneoplan]

Good for former Tulane Head Coach Willie Fritz that he got the head coaching job at Houston. That man, his staff, and his players for the last two years REALLY turned around Green Wave football. But the team he left behind didn't play like the Tulane that we all know.

I was at this game and I was cheering for tech. Also glad I got to see the trophy in person
