11-1 Kansas takes on 11-2 Va. Tech tonight, 8:PME @ Dolphins Stadium and on FOX.
The Jayhawks come in with the #2 scoring offense in the nation, while the Hokies have the #2 defense in points aloud. |

They could claim all they want if they win this game but the reality is they had a weak schedule with their biggest win against #24 at the time Kansas State. They had there chance to prove themselves against Mizzou and came out flat. Va. Tech's D is the best and fastest by far they will face, I think they will slow that O down. |

| Hopefully Vince Hall can play tonight after getting hurt at some team outing on the beach. Kansas is a good team, but they didn't play anybody and for the most part Missouri dominated that game. I think Virginia Tech is just a more experienced team and has been in big games like this before. Kansas looked overwhelmed vs. Missouri and they will probably deal with the pressure better here, but I think Tech's defense is better. The x-factor tonight will be Tyrod Taylor if he can make plays with his legs and get a couple deep passes I think Tech wins tonight. Beamer ball will be in effect tonight and I wouldn’t be surprised if Virginia Tech made a big play on special teams. Saying Virginia Tech wins 27-20 tonight, but after last night who knows. |

| Ill take my chances and roll with Kansas...After last night, I like being in the minority :D |
|
|
| A.Lang=Crazy |
| I see alot of action on Kansas. |
|

| LonghornsNo1 |
| Based on line movement, majority of public on V. Tech. I'm with King. Fade the public! |

| Everybody was on USC and Georgia too so I don't think you can take that into tonight's game. WVU just wanted it more than Oklahoma and they have a shitty coach. |

| Anybody see the insane amount of tickets still available for this game? Ebay and stubhub are flooded with them. I don't think this bowl worked out the way some predicted when they bought the tickets to begin with. I kind of like seeing scalpers getting fucked over. |

Weather is suppose to be cold and rainy, possibly heavy at times.
Just talked to my dad down there, said it is about 45 degrees and raining lightly. It is suppose to drop into the low 40's with a possibilty of rain, possibly heavy at times.
figured I would pass it along. |

That should slow down the Kansas passing attack a little, they are 27th in rushing compared to Va. Techs 5th ranked D against the run. The over/under is 52. :bigthink: |
|
|
| KingOfAllWhites |
| that exactly what i thought...It really just makes it more confusing 52 is such a hard # |

average points combined between the two is 74.
The shitty weather might be enough to cover the under. |
|
|
| A.Lang=Crazy |
| Kansas and Virginia Tech give up less than 18 points a game and the weather is bad. The under is my top play tonight. |
|
|
| Rammstein Musik |
| VT will win pretty easily. Kansas is overrated. |

I'm leaning toward the under to but like I said Kansas alone averages 44 points a game. :bigthink: |
|
|
| A.Lang=Crazy |
| Look at who they played. They haven't faced a defense like V Tech all year and Reesing will have trouble throwing over V Tech's big D-line. |

I totally agree but after last nights debacle with Oklahoma who the fuck knows what's going to happen? :dontknow: |
|
|
| A.Lang=Crazy |
| Stoops doesn't coach V Tech so I'm not worried about last night. Shit like that happens and WVU would destroy Kansas. |
|
|
| KingOfAllWhites |
| Last time I checked, Va Tech or Beamer do not have a great bowl record... |
|
|
| A.Lang=Crazy |
When was the last time Kansas was in a bowl game? Your putting your money on this fat fuck.
 |
|
|
| KingOfAllWhites |
:lol:
good point :D |
|
|
| A.Lang=Crazy |
| I'll give you Kansas winning if the game goes under. |
|
|
| KingOfAllWhites |
| well I would bet the under..But as you said I feel they are too connected, so dont want to get burned too bad. |

|
|
| A.Lang=Crazy |
| Offsides on 4th down. VT isn't ready for tonight. Looks like another upset. |
|
|
| A.Lang=Crazy |
| Special teams will play a big part in this game. Kansas misses FG. Under is looking good so far. |

| Pick 6 KU :D |
|
|
| Rammstein Musik |
| KU might win if that VT qb keeps throwing passes like that. what a dumb throw. |
|
|
| A.Lang=Crazy |
| He shouldn't be throwing the ball. He is a running QB. |

| yeah bring the white guy back in. :) |

They have lost 3 of their last 4 bowl games. You can argue that they lost to teams worse then them every year as well. Thats my sole point |
|
|
| Rammstein Musik |
| looks like this will be Tech's half. |

that was ridiculous!! the KU db had that, he was 10 feet in the air and had the ball in his hands! his own player stripped it from him, fell between his legs and landed on royal's lap and boone picked it off his stomach. |
|
|
| A.Lang=Crazy |
| I thought it was a INT no doubt and another stupid pass by Glennon. Need a TD this drive. |

my point is there is no trend. they totally blew that game to uga last year, and they don't deserve to win this year, although right now who the fuck knows. |

KU is in deep trouble!
I am out of here in about 15 minutes regardless of the game. I do not want people to think I am leaving because KU is about to shit the bed. |
|

:jj: try a penalty. this game must be a heart attack to bet. typical tech.
i think it was the year they went to the NC, they beat the spread almost every game. |
|
|

| Just give Ore the ball and try a deep pass every now and then. |

They did not cover in 2000 against WVU. We shit the bed and should have beaten Tech so they avoided the NC. Vick won the game by running right by me. I was in the front row at Mountaineer field ready to storm the field.
They won with a last second FG, so I doubt they covered.. |
|
|
| LennyD23 |
| oh no!!! tyrod taylor in the game!! who knows what he's gonna do with the ball. :jj: |

I did not know you were at that fucking game. That is crazy. It really was one of the best and most intense sporting events I ever saw live.
I was in the front row downstairs right off the field. I was in the front row and was prepared to take the pepper spray from the state troopers who surrounded the field. It was worth it for the good of the student body and football team.
I will never forget that Vick run for the rest of my life! I wanted to win that game so fucking bad. What the fuck were you doing in Mo'town in 2000? |
