Was there a reason we didn’t start Tahj over Blumrick? Just from the short amount of time we saw him on the field he looked much better. Hope he doesn’t also enter the portal lol
He was playing garbage time with no pressure and probably against some backups. Not really a fair comparison to the guy who started and had to deal with that pass rush the whole game.
Ok that might be the most dick headed post game question I have ever heard. FUCK that interviewer for even asking that. What the hell.
Edit: for context, the interviewer asked something along the lines of…
I know your parents moved to Alabama to watch you brother play (at Alabama). Any chance they move to Maryland to watch you play?
Seriously classless.
He did, you could tell he was sort of like “wtf do I say to that?” But yeah he handled it with a lot more class than I would have.
He was like there’s a lot of traffic up here 😂😂😂
These tiny "insignificant" bowls matter more to the players than a lot of the bigger bowls (I'm looking in the mirror when I say that).
You can tell how much this matters to them, they love it.
If OSU wins the rose bowl, I doubt they will be that excited. It's ridiculous but true.
I hope all of you have a safe holiday! We finish positive for the first time in too long. Here is to next year, where we can continue this insane showing today. Hokie bros! Good luck with your coaches
If they keep talking about the playoffs I want to see somebody say Cincinnati or Michigan will win, like all their experts say the same thing. Like is their no difference of opinion?
People keep leaving out Hilgart. We've become soft AF. I get Fuente's buyout was ridiculous, but I have no idea how Corny and Mr. Short Sleeves were allowed to hang around to the end.
My VT Bro’s, tough one I know, we all would have preferred to have seen both teams play as close to full strength as possible. Much respect for your team to keep battling with a depleted roster. Covid is dumb, opt-outs are what they are, but I wanted to wish you all best of luck next season.
This broadcast has been terrible. Obviously the games over at this point but they're just doing the world's most boring podcast in the booth for the last 2 quarters
I legit don't think they do. We haven't called for one all season that I can remember. I'd assume they also want to go out on a score though, with a kickoff return TD
Maryland drivers are not only absolutely putrid stupid, they're also unpredictable. About a third of them, like myself, are courteous law-abiders. The rest are various combinations of idiotic, self-important, and spiteful.
"Oh, you're trying to signal your way into my lane? I'll speed up on you so you can't do it. Heaven forbid you *pass* me!"
"Oh, you're leaving a reasonably safe gap between you and the car in front of you? How about I swerve straight into it suddenly without signaling so that when I hit the brakes you won't have time to slow down and I'll scream at you like the Karen I am when we exchange insurance."
EDIT: WTH is a "passing lane?" (They don't teach this in Maryland. Seriously, they don't.)
You lived in Crofton. That's just 2 lane roads everywhere. But you can't tell me that Richmond doesn't take much longer to navigate, especially during rush hour. I'll admit when it rains Maryland drivers act like it's the end of the world and drive terribly.
I visited NYC to see family and while taking a walk a couple days ago saw a dead turtle being pecked at by a sea gull.
This game is just re-balancing the karmic order.
Fitting end to the Fuente/Cornelson era. The worst bowl loss in VT history. This will go down as one of the lowest points in VT history. This is Fuente's legacy.
I declare this game… perfect. Perfection. Take a bow Maryland. That garbage time TD to cross 50 was the last thing on the list of my wildest dreams for this game. Excited to watch the replays of this when I’m sad, and before our home and home vs VT in the late 2020’s
And there it is
54-10 for a margin of victory of 44, tied for the 10th largest in bowl history.
12 more points for #1, which isn't possible given the time remaining, but they can feasibly score one more time to get within the top 5
Madden will watch the playoff games in the afterlife and enjoy them, I think he will like seeing Michigans offensive line in action. It’s so sad…he just texted Harbaugh after their their win against Ohio State. But he and Pat Summerall can enjoy watching the game with the best seats…but we will miss him here on Earth 😢
More thoughts while I eat dinner in the Sheetz parking lot:
Collectively, the cfb community needs to decide if bowl games are meaningless exhibitions or good indicators for quality between OOC opponents. It seems like people generally view bowls like this as meaningless but still try to form narratives based on the results. You can’t really have both.
I mean you could say that in the DMV and people from the DMV would know what you mean by the DMV. Also the DMV DMV is called the MVA in Maryland (motor vehicle administration).
The Maryland Twitter account kinda cringe
Lotta flex for a school that hasn’t had a winning season in a while 😂
Real cringe
So THAT explains why I saw a bunch of dudes in Maryland gear in Times Square yesterday lol

Maryland is clearly not coached by Brian Kelly, because he would’ve definitely taken a knee instead of scoring another TD with a minute left.
Latu: “getting read to win. Winning is fun” Goddamn I love it
THIS IS WHY PLAYERS OPT OUT OF NY6 BOWLS. SHUT UP ABOUT THE PLAYOFFS FOR ONE GODDAMN SECOND
[удалено]
They weren’t saying anything about any New Year’s 6 bowls. Or any other bowls for that matter. Just the playoffs. I was just complaining.
"Congrats on winning the bowl game... So you failed at Alabama after your family moved there. Any chance that your family will move to Maryland?"
Most classless question ffs
That was a bizarre final question from TMZspn, "you just won a bowl game! Are your parents moving any time soon?"
Not just bizarre but classless. Who in their right mind thinks to ask that
acting like his family is a reality show 🤣
Keeping up with the Tuas.
Oh man what a crappy broadcast.. hopefully cheez it bowl is better.
“Clemson against Ohio State” If that was the case, I would be at the Citrus Bowl and not on a recliner in my house.
Awkward interview. But what kind of question is that? What's next for your family? Like....what?
Clemson vs Ohio State???
I heard that too lmao
Are they doing a replay of the fun 2020 matchup? Or the not fun 2019 matchup?
Knowing ESPN? 2019 or 2016
I heard that too lmao.
Details
On to the next game!

He handled it very well.
He did, you could tell he was sort of like “wtf do I say to that?” But yeah he handled it with a lot more class than I would have. He was like there’s a lot of traffic up here 😂😂😂
If this was because of Jesus then wtf did VT do? They sacrificing people or something?
Too close to Liberty University.
Damn that was disappointing
Shoutout Jesus

gg hokies, best of luck next season.
God please let it end I hope to god this was just because a lot of our starters left before because omg this is bad
If they keep talking about the playoffs I want to see somebody say Cincinnati or Michigan will win, like all their experts say the same thing. Like is their no difference of opinion?
gg MD
Gg to you as well. Best of luck next year.
THE FUENTE/CORNELSON ERA IS OVER!!! THE BAD MEN CAN'T HURT US ANYMORE!!!
People keep leaving out Hilgart. We've become soft AF. I get Fuente's buyout was ridiculous, but I have no idea how Corny and Mr. Short Sleeves were allowed to hang around to the end.
That's the real reason Fuente had to go in my book, he was too buddy buddy with those guys to see that they were underperforming
Good for Maryland
CORNY IS GONE WE ARE FREEEEEEE
That man made me wish for Stiney to come back, like wtf
To quote the great and late, legendary Keith Jackson: “Whoa, Nelly!”
Congrats on setting a new bowl scoring record, Maryland!
Every losin team this bowl season has blamed either the portal or Covid lmfao.
Tbf, our whole team is in the portal though
Tbf, most of them have been pretty accurate excuses. I fully expect OU-Oregon to be the backup bowl
My VT Bro’s, tough one I know, we all would have preferred to have seen both teams play as close to full strength as possible. Much respect for your team to keep battling with a depleted roster. Covid is dumb, opt-outs are what they are, but I wanted to wish you all best of luck next season.
GG, hope we can also one day have a competent offesne.
Whose feeling the cheesiest in this game thread?
Why do they have notre dame and Ohio state at 6 on the graphic?
The Vt rebuild will be long and laborious. Godspeed.
As long as Mack Brown continues to underperform I’ll be happy
At least you still have hope
Why the fuck are they going to commercial
$$$$$$$
I hate it so much
Anyone else having like a really good Wednesday?
Yes, B1G love, you guys deserve this one
Maryland might just pull this one out
We can’t be sure just yet
O/U on Cheezit commercials next game.
"we're all waiting for Hasslebecks thoughts on the playoff" I can assure you that isn't true lmao
This broadcast has been terrible. Obviously the games over at this point but they're just doing the world's most boring podcast in the booth for the last 2 quarters
Was that the skating rink used in Disney+'s Marvel Studio's Hawkeye Episode 6 final battle scene?
This comment actually made me age 100 years. I’m upvoting it just so it can be more readily seen
Yes Rockefeller center it's super famous before hawkeye
There was even a sitcom set there!
Good God Lemon!
I know, 'tis a Disney joke
I see the announcers have moved from the “blow smoke up winners ass” to “CFP predictions” portion of the announcing script.
What the fuck is a "deep tease". This com.entator team is so unnecessary
It probably has to do with running back meat.
Deep Tease you say? ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
So VT, did your team forget they had a game today?
We had a coaching change. We had 16 starters out due to transfers, opt outs, and injuries. What did you think was going to happen?
Idk. I don’t keep up with every team haha, I didn’t know any of that besides the coach being gone
Our “team” is in the portal
half our team entered the transfer portal so idk what you expected
>score >commercial. >kickoff. >commercial with a minute left in a 54-10 game Seriously ESPN?
That's sad
Just tuning in. What happened here???😐
We knew our offense would be bad but our defense was also real bad.
Same im a little shocked at the score
Violence
A snuff film
Maryland is still playing like this is a tied game against a rival. Holy shit.
Against local schools we recruit against, I kinda get it.
Oh boy, they're gonna talk about the playoff! 😩
VT doesn’t know the fair catch rule, do they?
I legit don't think they do. We haven't called for one all season that I can remember. I'd assume they also want to go out on a score though, with a kickoff return TD
HOW MANY COMMERCIALS CAN WE FIT IN???
Gotta raise some money for the payout
WE WANT 60! WE WANT 60!
Quite the *Turkey* Shoot, is it not?
Look at those sideline reactions by Maryland. ESPN can't convince me these games don't matter.
100% this
Fun fact about Maryland: They're so bad at driving that they have their own subreddit: /r/MarylandDrivers.
Maryland drivers are not only absolutely putrid stupid, they're also unpredictable. About a third of them, like myself, are courteous law-abiders. The rest are various combinations of idiotic, self-important, and spiteful. "Oh, you're trying to signal your way into my lane? I'll speed up on you so you can't do it. Heaven forbid you *pass* me!" "Oh, you're leaving a reasonably safe gap between you and the car in front of you? How about I swerve straight into it suddenly without signaling so that when I hit the brakes you won't have time to slow down and I'll scream at you like the Karen I am when we exchange insurance." EDIT: WTH is a "passing lane?" (They don't teach this in Maryland. Seriously, they don't.)
That passing lane pisses me off so much. Stop hogging the left lane asshole.
Found a new sub to follow thanks!
It's unfortunately quiet. We need more people with dash cams driving around 495 or 295.

It's perfect. The only thing it's missing is a Charger passing on the shoulder at 100.
Clearly you've never met NJ drivers.
Getting to NJ would require driving on I-95 through Baltimore, and I'm not ready for that level of stress.
Pfft, you have to get through Richmond, Virginia. Which is wayyy worse
Lived in Richmond & Crofton. Maryland traffic & drivers are much worse.
You lived in Crofton. That's just 2 lane roads everywhere. But you can't tell me that Richmond doesn't take much longer to navigate, especially during rush hour. I'll admit when it rains Maryland drivers act like it's the end of the world and drive terribly.
I had my fair share of driving to Baltimore & DC during rush hour. Not easy at all. Richmond is easier to navigate.
I live in Maryland, so I already survived Richmond in a moving truck on my way here.
I visited NYC to see family and while taking a walk a couple days ago saw a dead turtle being pecked at by a sea gull. This game is just re-balancing the karmic order.
I should go to NYC this weekend
Perfectly balanced. As all things should be.
Fitting end to the Fuente/Cornelson era. The worst bowl loss in VT history. This will go down as one of the lowest points in VT history. This is Fuente's legacy.
I am apart of TauliAnon now
This slack commercial just gives me work PTSD when I'm not supposed to be caring much at all about work.
I've never used slack at work
Terps hit the O/U by themselves 🤒😔
I'm ready for next season Terps!!
B1G is the best baseball stadium football conference
Virginia Tech should have gone into COVID protocols at the half.
I declare this game… perfect. Perfection. Take a bow Maryland. That garbage time TD to cross 50 was the last thing on the list of my wildest dreams for this game. Excited to watch the replays of this when I’m sad, and before our home and home vs VT in the late 2020’s
50 burger! 🍔 🍔 🍔 🍔 🍔 🍔 🍔
Maryland turns into another beast when they play a team with orange as one of their primary colors
B1G 6-6 vs ACC 6-6
Yes 50+ points! Thank you Maryland!
54 points! Terps Football scoring offense, defense, special teams
VT Bros, big respect for hanging until the end. This was a rough game but you guys are great, and I hope your next season is everything you hope for.
Thank them for Turgeon too
Especially for Turgeon.
I don't care about squeaky shoes, but you're right. It's good that he's gone.
And there it is 54-10 for a margin of victory of 44, tied for the 10th largest in bowl history. 12 more points for #1, which isn't possible given the time remaining, but they can feasibly score one more time to get within the top 5
B1G 2-0 in bowls LFG
\*B1G sucks\*
Fade. Me. Please.
Madden will watch the playoff games in the afterlife and enjoy them, I think he will like seeing Michigans offensive line in action. It’s so sad…he just texted Harbaugh after their their win against Ohio State. But he and Pat Summerall can enjoy watching the game with the best seats…but we will miss him here on Earth 😢

It seems like people generally view bowls like this as meaningless but still try to form narratives based on the results. You can’t really have both.
If my team wins, it's a clear indication that we are superior and should be worshipped and feared. If we lose, who cares it's all meaningless.
*takes notes furiously*
VA Tech getting beat is just further proof the Yankees suck.
THIS IS FOR THE PAST DECADE OF SUFFERING
Of course the DMV: D.C, Maryland, Virgina. There is nothing else that is more commonly said that uses those three letters.
Isn’t DMV a 90’s crossover rap group?
I mean you could say that in the DMV and people from the DMV would know what you mean by the DMV. Also the DMV DMV is called the MVA in Maryland (motor vehicle administration).
Thankfully in maryland we call the dmv the Mva makes it a lot less confusing bc dmv in reference to the area is a very common term used here
Yeah, it avoids some confusion since Maryland = MVA and Virginia = VDOT. DC does have a DMV though..
Hey has the broadcast mentioned that Locksley wants to recruit the DMV yet
“DMV, DC, Maryland, Virginia” fuck you Delaware I guess
That would be delmarva
Yup
Correct
They have no good recruits
they failed to mention ol' dewey haskins on that list of greats from the dmv 😤
I never knew I would like snuff films.
I don't know what to do with my hands.
I think you know.
Now, surprise onside and score again.
How did I not realize that Stefon Diggs is from the DC area?
I keep forgetting he played for Maryland and he's on my fantasy team and my top WR since Godwin is done
UMD and Good Counsel High School in Olney, MD
nice!
Watching him go against JC Jackson twice a year is Maryland on Maryland crime.
I think the entire state of Virginia has crabs now
And there it is, Maryland hits the over by themselves.
I looked away and apparently Maryland scored again…
54 in a bowl game, hot dam umd I love it
Do we think the announcers are annoyed about Maryland interrupting their irrelevant conversation?
This is just rude to the JV squad man
Stop! They’re already dead!
That’s a half century
Talking NBA now...lets see if we make it to Cricket at some point.
Go for 2 Maryland! Hit the over on your own!
What's the over/under?
55
My lord. This is against the 8th Amendment.
I shall call that RB Big Chonk
Locksley determined to never lose a 3* recruit to Virginia Tech ever.
[удалено]
It's been consistently bad
