Well, VaTech does winning ugly better than anyone, but I watched the  
game and I was surprised they gave up that blocked punt. that's so  
unlike Beamer, but as the Good Book says - "Live by the sword, die by  
the sword'".

Otherwise, total Beamerball. We'd damned well better beat WMU before  
VA Tech. Ha!
