šŸˆ UVa Football Preseason 24

Interesting! I like both guys. I thought both had their moments last season. For the long term AC may be the better choice but I would have been good both ways.
I’m not expecting huge things this season. The recruiting seems to be picking up some but to sustain it we need a bowl very badly. Not sure I expect one though.

Excited to hear we’re going with AC- hope he can get some good line play

Yeah. In my snarky voice maybe an effective run game keeps a team on O.

First reaction is :face_vomiting:. But then on further thought, this is awesome and can’t wait to see the fanbase blow up after they inevitable stumble out of the gates.

I’ve watched Gameday Weekly for over 20 years and I realized today McAfee ruins that experience for me. Similar to our Kevin Hart discussion in another thread, the act has grown stale.

not sure they will though only because the schedule is so easy. Last year they didn’t beat anyone good but they’re getting a lot of love because they whooped bad teams and this year’s schedule is littered with those. Do I think VT is a playoff team? Hell no, but things lined up pretty nicely for them this year

But damn it would be hilarious if they lost one to like Vandy that no one saw coming. I love when VT has expectations. Always ends in heartbreak

Watching FSU sleepwalk against GT, and having lost faith in Dabo the last couple seasons, it’s wide open.

They will find a way. ACC may be down but they are consistently overrated.

They lost to Marshall, Rutgers and Purdue last year. Struggled out of the gate against ODU if I recall.

Can’t stand McAfee but do like the Saban addition a lot.

Still the best show on TV for me.

Agree 0n both poimts

I like the way the schedule sets up for the Hoos. If we are going to surprise a team or two the timing of the bye weeks is perfect.

Also maybe this is just me being cranky, but there’s a certain smarminess in CFB and they address it as if it’s super sad to see, as if they(or their employer) isn’t the problem. It just comes across as disingenuous to me.

Agree about the watch ability. It’s a past time for me, so I try every year to watch it, but I just can’t. Just feels like they have an agenda and biases they don’t even try to hide. Maybe I’m wrong, but feel like this has become more of a problem throughout realignment. Before that they seemed more genuine and fun.

All I know is that the media team should not be putting this soft ass music to anything football related

That’s awful. Ruined my excitement about AC

HELL YEA!

Ok, honestly, Muskett as starter, and working in AC for a few games to keep the RS, was probably the correct long-term move. But I’m totally thrilled for the goofy all-in enthusiasm.

From ChatGPT…

What is a better nickname for Coach Tony Elliott than CTE?

A better nickname for Coach Tony Elliott could be ā€œCoach Tā€ or ā€œElliott Express.ā€ These options are catchy and highlight his coaching role without the negative connotations of abbreviations like CTE.

I nominate Elliott Express. Haha!
