šŸˆ Virginia vs Wake Forest, Saturday, 8 November 2025, 1900, ESPN

If I’m calculating correctly, we still control our own destiny to the ACC title game…there are five 1-loss ACC teams remaining. We play Duke (which we have to win anyway) and GT plays Pitt, which would leave three 1-loss teams max. According to https://bball.notnothing.net/acc.php?sport=fb, even if SMU and the GT/Pitt winner also win out, we would finish top 2 based on common opponent record and conference opponent winning percentage.

…with all of that said, this is not a championship-caliber football team lol and if Morris is out next week we lose by 15+

No reason to go into full panic yet. Wait and see where Chandler is, but even if he can’t go next week the Duke defense is nowhere close to wakes defense.

We talked about this on the pod, virtually just needed 2 of 3 (including Duke) to make the ACC championship game.

I don’t know if you’re asking do I want it to happen or will it happen. I voted yes because I think it will happen.

It absolutely is with Kam back and everything clicking now. They’ve been awesome for several weeks now

I’m feeling a lot better about our ability to keep Duke’s offense contained. Absolutely crazy to think we’re more worried about our offense going into that game than our defense. Imagine saying that after the FSU game

Gives me hope these next two games as long as Morris comes back. They’ll keep us in games

Yep offense was one of the best in the nation across 5 games then hit a bit of a wall. Lots of banged up guys on that side.

Do you support. You can change vote

We are 8-2

Still have a great,great chance to make the Acc championship game and a possible playoff spot

Other teams will lose ahead of.

We lost a game most of us thought we would win

We are the hunted team right now

We just got Wakes best performance of the year, on defense. We lost our best offensive player and the pitchfork carrying fan base want to fire folks.

It’s college football, these are teenagers and a few old guys. Chances are they are already over it

Show up tomorrow for film sessions

Put this behind us

Go kick dukes ass, this ain’t Lacrosse of hoops

I mean punish those bastards

Let’s go to work!

Thanks for clarifying. My take now is ā€œI’m not sure.ā€ The Des part is troublesome.

Board has been down for me on PC for a couple hours now, didn’t realize it was working on mobile. Anyone else dealing with this or is my stuff just fucked lol.

Funniest possible (and frankly probably optimal) outcome is Shane runs to Blacksburg, SC hires Elliott, we hire Franklin

Lmao just saw that Duke lost to UConn. Not sure if that makes me feel better or worse about next week

UVA rallies and pulls off 10-7 win vs Duke, 7-3 win vs Hokies, and 14-10 win vs GT to make playoffs. One of South Carolina or Clemson poaches Elliot and we hire _______ who finds a way to keep Rud, hire Beck/Hagans, and poach UNC/Penn State players as well as top 20 program 2nd and 3rd stringers as well as Claiborne from Wake

I had a bad feeling about this week when I kept reading about the last time we were 8-1, in 1990. Because I remember exactly what happened that game — I was in Scott for that one as a 16-year-old. Shawn Moore broke his thumb at the end of the game on a play inside the 10 as the clock was running out. We lost. He missed the next game and VPI waxed us.

I really don’t love the symmetry.

Also we ran nine plays in the red zone tonight, and gained nine yards.

Time for Tony to start calling his own plays.

I was there too - 4th year student. It sucked so, so much.

I’m having 1990 flashbacks until/unless we hear Morris is GTG for next week (or at least for VT).

8-1, starting QB gets hurt, don’t win again rest of the season.

They’re not good. Our defense will give us a chance but we need Morris
