Hopefully Tech wins by 30. But I'll take scUM by a couple of touchdowns.

If Denard throws the ball well that day, Michigan wins, if he throws like he does about half the time (2-3 int.) VT wins.

Va Tech wins on a special teams play, more than likely a blocked punt returned for 6


VT 28
tsun 24

I think UM wins by at least 10. It will look like the Clemson VT games...

I think if Michigan takes care of the ball they win, 31-20.

VA Tech and the ACC are about one to two steps above the Big East, which puts them 10 steps behind every other BCS conference. Michigan wins.

Apparently these are the jerseys Michigan will be wearing.

I think Michigan wins by two scores or more

Virginia Tech is a fraud and did not deserve a BCS bid. They lost to Clemson by a combined margin of 48 points.

Those jerseys are a billion times better than the ones worn at MSU, can't believe someone thought they looked good.

I bet the Sugar Bowl is really regretting not taking Baylor now. VT can't sell tickets, which is why they were picked and RGIII being a heisman winner would have been a huge marketing tool.

Baylor vs. tsun? Now that would've been an exciting game, and a much better storyline...RGIII vs. Shoelace? wow

If denard is healthy this game should be ugly.

I agree. Surprised they didn't go for that, even pre-Heisman.

I would also enjoyed a Baylor UM game. UM wins this game, but it will be a nail biter.

Yea, you don't even have to market it. It'd market itself.

RGIII>Shoelace.......however, that'd be a helluva game.

Va Tech is from the shitty ACC and will get blown out by Michigan.

How is that getting my shot in? I think Michigan could beat several BCS teams this season. I wish they would have been matched up with a better team than a joke team from a joke conference.

It's not true? I just thought it was a bad comparison on Vball's part. RGIII is WAY better than Denard. Yes it is obvious, but it wasn't to him apparently. Don't be so sensitive, you guys won.

He wasn't comparing. He was saying it would be a good marketing matchup, which it would. No one said DR was better, but you felt the need to say the obvious. A clear shot. Don't be so sensitive, you guys lost.

Webfire is nowhere near as sensitive as any Notre Dame fan.
