A Sea Of Red

UVA for the game on 11.10.18?

My wife & I will be there, so that’s at least 2.
I imagine we’ll take as many as we did to Tech, if not a few hundred more.

My wife and I are also planning on attending.

2 more, at least.

Myself and at least one more, hopefully we need to caravan the family that way.

It would be cool if they would offer students a bus ride and ticket like they did when we played Villanova. Only an hour up the road.

LU might have to invest some serious money into it. They could seriously generate enough interest to get 3k or more at UVa if the season is respectable.

I don't know that it'd make sense to do a bus ride. It's an hour up the road. It's more likely they'll do a caravan like they did for JMU a few years back. Set up a way to do ride sharing for those who don't have a car but not invest in the logistics of setting up buses and schedules.

That far into the season and with probably 2-3 wins, I suspect there won't be a lot of interest. I was going to go to the Army game in September, but might wait until we have a new coach in 19. You know, one that will know before the game that Army (like K State), runs the ball 90% of the time and will game plan that way.
Don't like to be negative, but after 6 years, there comes a time to be realistic and not to expect any changes to the SOP.

Dr. Phil says "you can't fix what you don't acknowledge," so at least you see there is a problem!
Cider & company will be there. I'm loving a chance to go back to my alma mater to see them play LU. My interest level is off the charts.
How can you not LOVE an ACC game for LU that is only an hour away???

Everyone should go, if 20,000 LU fans show up, UVA might have a sellout in Scott's Stadium.


I will go to Army and Auburn games, and maybe New Mexico State, but not UVA.

Why not?

I have zero use for UVA football, do not want to be around it. At one time I pulled for them 11 games a season, but they did some unethical recruiting to sway a recruit from VT to Charlottesville. Since that day, I have rooted for them to go 0-12 every season.

Then why are you telling people they should go? Makes zero sense man.

Exactly lol

Unethical recruiting in FBS?! Say it ain’t so!!!!

Some people can’t handle the big time.

What a joke! If you honestly believe whatever "unethical" recruiting methods used by UVA have never been employed by VT, I have some swamp land in Arizona to sell.

Me telling people they should go, was a joke related to UVA's attendance. They haven't had a sellout in years , if my memory is correct.

LU will SELL OUT this game, with or without ballcoach!

The best football joke I ever heard involved UVA's attendance. It goes something like this:

There was a recruit visiting on an Official Visit. His Host carried him to Scott Stadium. which was empty on a week day, but there's a NCAA rule that a school cannot simulate game day conditions for a recruit on a visit. UVA dodged a bullet on that one.

I will be attending every game! I can't wait!
