46-140 [33%] (106th) vs. 45-123 [37%] (44th)

Make no mistake, we'd better get the bad taste of the FSU loss out of our mouths very quickly, because come Saturday Night, we're going to face a VT team that is very very good defensively, and you can make the case that they're even better than FSU defensively in some areas. With a Bud Foster Coached team, we know what we're facing here. We'd better give VT our full attention this week because this is going to be, IMO, a very low scoring game on Saturday Night at home. Let's get back on the winning track and GO CANES.
