Lost in the shuffle of last night’s win, a shout out to Nathan Totten, who averaged 51.7 yards on his three second half punts.

BALL PLAYER
Grunkemeyer came through in the clutch 🦃
@E_Grunkemeyer threw two TDs to Luke Reynolds, including the go-ahead score with 1:44 left, to lead Virginia Tech past Clemson, 20-16. He finished 20-of-32 for 156 yards in the road win.

Lore: Fred Biletnikoff caught a late TD and vented frustration by throwing the ball violently to the ground. When he caught the ensuing 2-pt conversion, he threw the ball into the Miles Stadium crowd in anger as the fans booed him.
Today in 1964: @HokiesFB pulls off a monumental upset as Bob Schweikert and Tech top No.10 Florida State 20-11 in Blacksburg. It was FSU's only loss of the season. #HokieHistory #Hokies
Conferences are now too large to crown a champion and look geographically silly. The only reasons for them to exist are TV money and lobbying/advocacy. The smart schools could solve for that and disrupt the landscape.

Rest in peace to one of my favorites. John Anderson had one of those distinct voices, and gave us his gift of music for over 40 years.
One of the all-time greats is gone. John Anderson has passed on.
A remembrance:

Interesting Grunkemeyer stats thru 7 games:
*165.6 pass efficiency rating would be best career mark all time at Tech
*7.5 TD/INT ratio is best all time & 2x better than 2nd place.
*283.4 passing yards/start is best all time at Tech
Partial season, sure, but he’s good y’all.
Was such a treat to see coach yesterday and sing happy birthday to him. You won’t find a better human. He IS Virginia Tech 🥹
Let’s go!!!
It was 89 when we got here Friday afternoon and it’s 35 right now. The leaves are changing right before our eyes.
