Satisfaction

That was one of the most satisfying games we've been a part of. All facets of our team (offensive coordinator included) were functioning properly. We weren't afraid to read the papers or surf the net yesterday. It was a complete win that was one to be proud of! Great job!

First of all, Bryan Stinespring should be lauded for his gameplan, staying patient with the playcalling, and playing to our strengths. We don't know if it was the rain, but way to keep pounding that ball on the ground. And timely playcalling in the passing game proved that we CAN be an effective offense. What a great call sprinting Tyrod out to the right to avoid the blitz and take advantage on the man coverage on the TD to Boykin! Ryan Williams is a beast, period. We've been extremely impressed with his ability to run between the tackles.

Second of all, Bud Foster's unit comes through again. Couldn't have drawn it up much better than that, great job putting pressure on Harris and stuffing the run. It was fun to watch.

Strange (but telling tidbits) read during the week...Stinespring says the offense reviewed film as an entire unit this week....good idea. Stinespring said he should've run the ball more against Nebraska...also brilliant insight. Stinespring says he stayed up all week preparing for Miami and that he didn't sleep well....that's what should be happening...ask Bud how well he sleeps during the week!

We're back in the title hunt, but can our coaches keep our players focused and can they themselves, keep the focus and preparation at such a high level? We know that Bud can do it, he's proven it time and again. Can Stinespring though? History says his consistency is suspect. That will go a long way in determining whether or not we stay in the mix.

See yall in Durham!

GO HOKIES!!
