Normally when we think of UNC we picture powder blue basketball jerseys running up and down the court to a screaming crowd of fanatics in the middle of March. When you think UNC football it may conjure up an entirely different image, but there is less separating the two teams in terms of expectations this year. UNC has been picked by some to be the breakout king of the ACC Costal Division. VT had better watch the big UNC/VT bball upset of last January and get pumped to try and take the same domination to the football field because if the analysts are right, UNC is pretty damn good this year.  I shutter to think of UNC as a power in college football as they already enjoy so many moronic fans who have never even step foot in North Carolina, let alone the south, that avidly love and worship their basketball team and those asses could easily transition their sweet UNC Crocs to their fall wardrobe and keep painting their 7 year-old son’s face baby blue and white all year round… and we can’t have that.

We will need to rely (as always) on our defense picking off their pass happy quarterback and hope that we can rely on Tyrod for big points throughout the entire game. I feel like every time we play UNC we start slow and then squeak out in the end with a score that doesn’t accurately show how hard of a win it was for the Hokies.

Beating UNC will place us well in Coastal division of the ACC since we already took one from Georgia Tech and can pretty much guarantee wins against Duke and UVA unless we all start running around the field like Radio. With a win we would have the tie breaker in our favor and only need to worry about Miami on Thursday night to lock up a spot in the ACC championship game. Speaking of UVA, they are just getting more and more shitty - they cut their quarterback, Peter Lalich, this week for admitting in court that he had consumed alcohol in the past six months. OH GOSH NO! A twenty year old kid (and football player no less) admitted to consuming alcohol? Mind you, this wasn’t drinking and driving, not drinking and raising Hell, not blacking out nor starting fights with other students… just plain old having a drink. We all know UVA loves to suck the fun out of everything in the world but to banish a kid from the team for engaging in what 99% of the student body does anyway is just plain stupid. To be fair to the Al Groh gestapo, Lalich was on probation for underage possession of alcohol when he admitted to sipping on some of granddad’s punchy juice but isn’t alcohol just alcohol. Marcus had to pull a gun on a kid, commit an assault on live television, get busted with pot, rack up two speeding tickets, and flick off the entire crowd at Morgantown. Although, that last one probably bought him some extra time but still.  This may be the first time in a long while that player has been kicked off a team for a first violation of team rules not involving a felony, but its okay, when UVA goes 1-9 they can at least say they have the respect of Middle Utah State. I personally think Al Groh is trying to get himself fired. Score prediction: Virginia Tech 28, UNC 20.
