First Half Outlook

The Bleacher Report has a good rundown of VT's first half. I like the analysis, especially considering these teams are still in spring ball and looking to fill some holes. They have VT standing at 3-1 by week 4, with the intial loss to Alabama. Not a bad start considering we have UA, Marshall, Nebraska and Miami to open the season.

As tough of a start as this is, BR notes (and I concur) "remember back in 2002 and 2003 when UVA fans would call into a local radio show here in Roanoke, Virginia and complain about the “weak” schedule the Hokies had that season. Even though Tech has played some less then stellar out of conference schedules in years past, 2009’s gauntlet seems to be one of the tougher schedules the Hokies have ever had."
